“You will be asked to list a new year resolution you are committed to for 2019 and to complete a series of online questionnaires across four time points.
“In the first survey, you will be asked questions about your resolution, personality and wellbeing, which should take approximately 20 minutes.
“Each of the remaining three sessions (two, four and eight weeks later) should take no more than five minutes.”
Complete the survey at bit.ly/2A581g7 before January 13.
