The Johns Hopkins Center for OCD, Anxiety, & Related Disorders for Children (COACH) is looking for participants with Trichotillomania, or hair pulling, to participate in a study examining the effects of a smart wearable device on an individual’s awareness, frequency, and severity of hair pulling behaviors. Potential benefits of the study include a decrease in automatic hair pulling behaviors and their severity.

‍

Participation will last 4 weeks and will consist of 3 assessment sessions, conducted in-person at the Johns Hopkins East Baltimore campus. Eligible participants must be 18 years or older, meet diagnostic criteria for trichotillomania, willing to attend appointments in-person, and be English speaking.

‍

Participants will receive a $20 gift card for completing each assessment visit (up to $60 in total for completing all 3 study visits), along with a voucher to cover the cost of parking if needed. Participants can also choose to withdraw from the study at any time and all records and information will be kept confidential.

If you are interested or have any questions, please email coach@jhmi.edu or call 443-300-8836 to learn more details about the study and eligibility.

The https://www.pissedconsumer.com/company/wellcare-medicare/customer-service.html I had to call Wellcare Medicare Insurance for some questions about my plan, and honestly, it was a pretty smooth experience. The customer service rep was super friendly and really took the time to explain everything clearly. I didn’t feel rushed at all, which is a nice change from other companies. Overall, I walked away feeling satisfied and well-informed!

This post about the COACH program is fascinating! It’s inspiring to see such dedicated research into trichotillomania. I'm curious, how do the researchers aim to tailor their approach for children with different backgrounds? Also, do you think that engaging kids in activities like drift boss could relieve some anxiety symptoms during the process?
