Participants

Anyone who is a part of the eating disorders workforce (clinicians, researchers, peer workers, students, lived experience/carers) can participate. If you are 18 years and over, we invite you to complete a short survey.

The study might be a good fit for you if:

• You are a part of the eating disorder workforce in Australia (e.g., a clinician, researcher, an individual [or a loved one] with lived experience). For this survey we are defining the eating disorder workforce as anyone who is engaged with work directly involving eating disorders, including those in lived experience and clinical / practitioner roles, as well as researchers, academics and current students. Work roles may be paid or voluntary. We want to hear from everyone in any of these roles.

• You are interested in contributing your knowledge and experience to improve our understanding, prevention, and treatment of eating disorders.

What is Involved

If you decide to take part in the research study, you would:
• Be asked to complete an online survey that takes approximately 20 minutes.
