Leading CBD Knowledge Base, Project CBD, Looks for Volunteer Users
CBD users are encouraged to participate in a CBD study by Project CBD. The study looks at how the use of cannabis influences the health and wellbeing of people during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Wholistic Research and Education Foundation, together with the UC Institute for Prediction Technology, and Department of Emergency at the University of California, Irvine, will be involved in the study together. People who can volunteer as subjects need to be 18 years of age or older, speak English, have the power of consent, and be CBD and/or cannabis users.
How Will the Project CBD Study Take Place?
The study is going to be conducted exclusively online, asking subjects to complete questionnaires that take about 10 to 15 minutes to complete. Questions will be about how the ongoing pandemic is influencing the respondents’ sleep quality and anxiety levels, also of the use of CBD and/or cannabis in such times has had an impact on their health and wellbeing. The results will be shared with anyone who wants to know more about CBD and cannabis. Volunteers' answers will be privately kept. Only research team members will have access to the information they’re providing.
