UoA Research Study Participants Needed

Kat from Epsom

Kia ora koutou,

My name is Katerina and I am currently working towards a Masters Thesis in Psychology at the University of Auckland. Thank you to all that have participated thus far. I am currently still needing at least another 10 people for the study.

We are looking to find out how a large sample of healthy New Zealanders perform on a small number of tasks involving social cognition (understanding what other people are thinking and feeling) and executive function (planning and problem-solving) and on measures of well-being and social connectedness. This will provide information about the normal range of performance and may provide a useful comparison in future studies involving people with neurological problems.

The study will take no longer than 1 hour of your time and you will receive a $20 Countdown voucher for participation. The study will take place at the School of Psychology, Science Centre, 23 Symonds St.

If you are interested, please email me at eger856@aucklanduni.ac.nz and I can arrange a call to check eligibility and provide more information.

Thank you for your interest and time in reading this post!

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
