Co-Designing the Orygen Specialist Program Registry for Eating Disorders in Youth (OSPREY)

Researchers at The University of Melbourne and Orygen are seeking people to take part in 2x 2-hour online focus groups which discuss the factors that play a role in the development, maintenance, and recovery from eating disorders.

We are seeking: 

• People aged 12 or older with a lived experience of a past/current eating disorder 
• People aged 18 or older who are the family members/loved ones/carers of someone with a past/current eating disorder
• Clinicians who work with people with eating disorders All participants must currently live in Australia and be fluent in English 

People under the age of 18 will need parental consent to participate. Focus groups will take place virtually over Zoom and participants will be reimbursed with vouchers for their time ($150 for the first focus group and $150 for the second focus group, i.e. a total of $300 for both rounds).

Participants will also be required to complete a short online survey to collect some demographic information (e.g. age, gender).

The information gathered in this study will be used to help guide future research directions and build comprehensive assessments for clinical practice.
