PSYCHOLOGY OF DOPING : IMPORTANT RESEARCH STUDY
By Paddy Doran
Feb 1, 2007

Kate Kirby  of the School of Psychology at University College Dublin is currently researching the psychology of doping among elite athletes. This work is jointly funded by the World Anti-Doping Agency and the Irish Sports Council. your input could be vital to this research. It's all totally anonymous and confidential and takes about 15 minutes to complete. See note from Kate Below

"I am currently in the middle of collecting data from high performance athletes for my PhD. I need approx 200 athletes from a variety of different sports, but particularly need to recruit athletes from 'at-risk' sports such as cycling, triathalon, athletics etc. Participation in the study entails filling in a questionnaire that takes 15-20 mins, and is totally anonymous and confidential. It can be done in hardcopy (where I usually go to a squad training session and hand out the questionnaires) or online (http://www.ucd.ie/usensor/survey.htm). "

If you have any further questions, please get in touch by phone or email.
