Stand@Home: Home-based Standing Desk Study Recruitment

Do you want a FREE standing desk? Want to try a standing desk before purchasing one?

Dr. Guy Faulkner, UBC Professor in the School of Kinesiology, and the Population Physical Activity Lab is seeking participants for a study aimed at evaluating the perceptions, usability, and acceptability of low-cost standing desks in the home environment.

Each participant will receive a free cardboard standing desk and will be asked to complete one online survey and two phone interviews over a period of 6-months. At the end of the study, the desk will be gifted to you to keep!

To be eligible to participate, you must reside in the University Neighbourhood Association (UNA) residential areas or be a UTown@UBC resident and be between the ages of 18 to 65 years.

Please contact the Pop-PA lab at pop_pa.lab@ubc.ca to receive more information or to sign up for the study.
