Participants Needed for Online Survey On New Postpartum Distress Scale

Karen Kleiman has sent out the following information on research she is conducting into a new postpartum distress scale.  She needs participants who have babies up to 12 months old to complete a survey (Bummer - I can't participate!).  If you meet this criteria, I hope you'll take the survey.  The link to it is below:

As many of you know, I have been collaborating with a research team at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine who have expertise in postpartum distress and scale design. We have performed an initial statistical analysis on a new postpartum distress scale.

At this stage, we would like to re-test our proposed scale items, along with established measures, such as the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS).

We need approximately 100 postpartum women (with babies up to 12-months old) to complete this phase of the study. I am hoping that you will post a link to the questionnaire, which is offered online, for your members or your clients, to help us further validate this measure.

The survey will probably only be up for a month or so.
