Hi,
I am a Masters student in Medical Anthropology in London,UK. My thesis is going to be looking at the mental health of former Family members. Essentially, I want to know 'how you're doing' following your departure from the group. I will be asking open-ended questions about current employment, relationships, and religious beliefs. The interview will probably be about 1-2 hours in length. I understand many of you have concerns regarding anonymity and safety therefore, the interviews can either be conducted by phone or in a public setting (such as a room in the Anthropology department at the school). My only requirement be that you are over the age of 16 (for research ethical purposes). I have created an email address specifically for this study, so if you are interested in meeting with me or speaking to me by phone, please do get in touch with me at cog-family_study@hotmail.com. Please note that by contacting me, you are in no way obliged to be interviewed by me and if you do agree, you may withdraw at any time.
Thanks so much,
Emily.
