Thanks to everyone who has completed the survey and sorry for the feedback not working - it seems to decide randomly who to not give feedback to, as I can't figure out what's going wrong! I'll have another look and see if I can work it out though. Thanks for flagging it up! The absence of work is definitely a cause of stress, I totally agree. This research, however, is hoping to try to develop tools to help people in stressful jobs recover, so hopefully this is still contributing something useful. I guess that'll all depend on the results though! I'm recruiting mostly within the UK but I'm currently not restricting it to any particular country, so anyone can take part. Where people are from will definitely be something I take into consideration when I'm looking at the results, that's a really good point. Thanks again for taking part, and for all the comments and suggestions

Hi! I’m a researcher at University College London (UCL) and I’m currently running a study looking at work stress and how people recover from work, with the hope to find out what factors and activities (for example, social support) may help with this. I’m really keen to get respondents from a variety of professions, levels of job stress and working hours, so it’d be great if anyone from this forum would be interested in taking part. It only takes 15 minutes and you’ll receive instant feedback on things like whether you have high work strain, whether you’re successfully recovering from work and whether you’re work life is influencing your home life. Plus, you’ll be entered into a prize draw for one of six £50 Amazon vouchers and you’ll be doing your bit to help develop methods of improving post-work recovery! The only requirement is that you work at least 3 days/shifts per week and are over 18. Please feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions or comments (my e-mail address is on the first page of the survey).
