Understanding homesickness and its impact over time
08 February 2024
We would like to understand how different individuals experience homesickness (HS) over time, its impact on well-being and if certain coping strategies (used to address HS) are deemed more effective for some people than others. We aim to use our results to help people who desperately miss their home, address their HS more effectively. This study has 5 parts, each 2 months apart. Part 1 will take about 35 minutes to complete. Participants can later choose to complete parts 2-4 (10min)& 5 (30min)
