Volunteers needed for research study

The CAPACITY Lab in the Department of Gerontol¬ogy at UNO is seeking participants for a research study. The purpose of the study is to learn about the effects of the built environment on sleep.

The study will involve a series of inperson surveys about your sleep quality and home environment. This can take up to one hour, but most participants finish in less than 30 minutes.

You may have to take a screening survey. Compensation is available to those who complete the survey.

To be eligible for the study, you must live in Nebraska, be 60 years or older, identify as Hispanic or Latino and can speak and understand Spanish.

If you are interested, please call 402554-2951 or email us at UNOCapacity@ unomaha.edu.
