Research request 📣 STUDY TITLE - The role of mobile apps in recovery from sexual violence: a qualitative study You are being invited to take part in a research study. The research is being carried out by researchers from the University of Glasgow, with support from Rape Crisis Scotland. Rape Crisis services in Scotland have been working to increase the ways survivors of sexual violence can access support and information. This study will explore the potential of a mobile app to deliver support and information to survivors of sexual violence. We are looking to recruit up to 10 participants, aged 18 years or over and able to consent to take part in an English language interview. During the interview you will be asked questions relating to your experience of accessing Rape Crisis services and your use of digital resources including mobile apps. You will not be asked to disclose any information about your experience of sexual violence. The interviews will normally take place online using Microsoft Teams, but other alternatives are available. The interviews will last around one hour, up to a maximum of 90 minutes. Interviews will be recorded, you will have the option to use audio only, or audio and video as you prefer. By taking part you will help us understand more about how survivors are making use of digital resources to support their recovery, and gather preferences for a new mobile app. If you would like to learn more about the study, please contact the Lead Researcher using the contact details below. The Lead Researcher will then contact you by email to discuss the study and other details related to your potential participation All participants will receive a £20 shopping voucher as a token of appreciation for their time.
