My name is Alicia Van Duyn, and I am a first year master's student in the Department of Psychological Science.
I invite you to participate in my study, “Exploring The Relationships Between Long-COVID, Poly-Cystic Ovarian Syndrome, and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome” [IRB-FY2025-140]. This study explores the relationship between long-COVID, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) using the Conservation of Resources (COR) Theory. If you agree to participate, you will complete a 15-minute online survey where you will answer long-COVID, PCOS, and ME/CFS diagnosis questions, anxiety and depression questions, long-COVID questions, and demographic questions. All responses are anonymous.
To be eligible to participate you must be 18+ years old, have been assigned female at birth, and have experienced COVID-19 symptoms for 3 months or longer after a positive test that you did not have before having COVID-19.
