About this study

In plain language

This study looks at how Parkinson’s disease affects social behavior and quality of life, or how people feel about their daily lives. It compares adults age 40 or older who have Parkinson’s with people of the same age who do not.

Adults with Parkinson's Disease experience an array of challenges and changes in daily living, behaviors, and functioning throughout the progression of their condition. The investigators want to learn more about the effects of Parkinson's Disease on individuals' social behavior and quality of life (QoL) compared to people of the same age without Parkinson's Disease.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.

Eligibility

Who can join

Who can't join
