Hey all, please help me with this if you can. I am in the final week or so now and even 1 person is a great help. If you have any questions let me know. Research into NAFLD is lacking, in particular the psychological side of the condition. It is important to understand the factors involved in managing weight because if this is achieved it can significantly help the condition/even reverse in some cases and certainly reduce the risk of progression.

Title of Project : Using the COM-B behaviour change model to explore the barriers and facilitators in weight management among people with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Are you an adult aged 18 years and over, and have had a diagnosis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease?
My name is John Hughes and I am a Health Psychology student at Ulster University. I am currently seeking participants to take part in an anonymous, online survey for my MSc. dissertation. My study is being supervised by Dr Marian McLaughlin (m.mclaughlin@ulster.ac.uk). The survey is expected to last approximately 40 minutes.
The aim of this research is to explore the barriers and facilitators in weight management among people with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The criteria for eligibility is as follows:
i) Aged 18+
ii) Received a diagnosis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (at any point)
iii) Not suffering from a more serious liver condition such as Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH).
iv) Not currently feeling in poor physical or mental health
If you wish to participate, you will be asked questions to explore the things that have helped or hindered you in relation to your weight management. However, it is important to note that this study may have the potential to cause some upset. Given this, we do ask that those individuals suffering from poor physical and/or mental health, not to participate in the study.
If you would like further information or to discuss participating, please contact either the researcher, John Hughes (hughes-j60@ulster.ac.uk) or the research supervisor, Dr Marian McLaughlin (m.mclaughlin@ulster.ac.uk ).
