You’re Invited to Participate in a Research Study on Parental Conflict in Highly Sensitive Adults
Are you a Highly Sensitive Person aged between 25 and 45? Do you reside in the UK or the USA and have experience with parental conflict in your childhood?
If yes, you are invited to participate in a research study titled: “Parental Conflict through the Lens of Highly Sensitive Individuals”.
The study will feature a 5-minute online survey to understand your demographic, score on the HSP test, and extent of parental conflict experienced as a child. It will also include a 60-minute online interview to discuss your experience and perspectives in detail.

What’s the Purpose of this Study?
According to the participation invite, this research study on parental conflict in highly sensitive adults seeks to understand the following:
- How adult HSPs view their childhood experience of parental conflict

Your participation will be voluntary, free of compensation and recorded for contribution to the scientific knowledge of Highly Sensitive People.
