We are looking for Black-identifying students at St Andrews to participate in a master’s thesis project investigating how belonging and social support interact with the mental well-being of Black students at the university. The study will be online, and we will ask you questions about your perceived belonging in St Andrews, your identification with and support within the Black community at the university, and your mental well-being. It should not take more than 15 minutes of your time!

You must be at least 16 years old to take part in this study. If you are interested, the study can be found using this link:

If you participate, you could enter a draw and have a 1 in 10 (i.e., 1 gift card per every 10 participants) a chance of winning a £25 Amazon gift card!

You will be asked to enter your email address in a separate survey. This data will be anonymised as soon as data collection ends to prevent the possibility of your email addresses being linked to survey responses. Any information you give will be accessed by only the researcher and research supervisor until fully anonymised.
