Are you married or in a long-term cohabiting relationship for at least one year? Are both partners ages 45–64, overweight or obese and does at least one partner have type 2 diabetes? If so, you may be eligible to participate in a University of Missouri research study examining how couples’ daily routines—such as sleep and activity patterns—and relationship quality relate to cardiovascular health and everyday well-being.

Participation involves one or two in-person research visits at the University of Missouri, followed by a 20-day at-home period. During this time, both partners will wear a wrist device that measures sleep and activity and a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) worn on the arm, complete brief smartphone-based surveys four times per day and return devices at the end of the study.

Each partner can earn up to $215 for full participation, for a total of up to $430 per couple.

For more information, contact Eunjin Tracy in the Department of Human Development and Family Science, University of Missouri — eunjintracy@missouri.edu.

Location: CTSU West, University Hospital, 5th Floor, 1 Hospital Dr, Columbia, MO 65201
