University of Queensland researchers studying agoraphobia need 20 adult volunteers who do not suffer the condition, nor have a university education, to participate as control subjects.

Subjects who have never been diagnosed or treated, nor had a first degree relative diagnosed or treated, for a mood, anxiety or psychotic disorder are needed to complete a set of questionnaires.

Psychology Department masters student Esben Strodl said the questionnaires took about 50 minutes to complete, and subjects would be paid $15.

Professor Pat Noller is supervising Mr Strodl's research. Those interested should contact Mr Strodl (telephone 3365 6833).
