What is Stress Free UCLA?

The Stress Free UCLA Study is the first large-scale research program focused on workplace stress in employees across University of California, San Francisco campus. 

 

By participating in the study, you will help the UCLA wide community learn if HeadspaceTM, a meditation application for your computer and smart phone, can improve your health and wellbeing.

What is the goal of the study?

The goal of this study is to better understand how stress impacts health and well-being of UCLA employees and test a digital meditation intervention called Headspace™.

Who is conducting the study?

This is a research study led by Lauren Hofschneider and Dr. A. Janet Tomiyama.

How is my info kept safe?

As researchers, we understand information about your life is personal. It’s our priority to keep the information you share for this study private. All information about you will be deidentified, meaning it’s kept separate from your name, phone number, or email, and no one outside of our study staff will have access to your records, including your employer. Providing access to your medical record will in no way affect the care you receive at UCLA.
