Roll up, roll up

and lend your support...please!

Complete an online survey on ‘Hassles of Daily Life’ and go into the draw to receive one of two iPod Nanos. (Note: may be for Australian residents only....)

The University of the Sunshine Coast and the Australian Psychological Society are conducting research on daily events or situations that make people feel irritable, and their reactions to these situations.

The survey takes approximately 10 - 15 minutes to complete. If you wish to participate, go here.


In completing the survey you are not required to provide any contact details. All survey responses are confidential and will be reported only as compiled data. Participants can independently submit their name and contact details to be in a draw for one of two Ipod Nanos. The research will be published by the University of the Sunshine Coast in conjunction with the Australian Psychological Society.

Surveys can be submitted up until 19 September 2008.
