Participants in the CORAL Study completed a detailed hour-long online survey at three different time points throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, investigating how the changes brought about by the pandemic affected people’s well-being and social connectedness. The cohort is comprised predominantly of female participants residing in Australia, the UK, or the USA, who were 11 years of age or older, fluent in English, had no history of neurodevelopmental or neurological disorders, and had no history of traumatic brain injury. Of the 2,367 participants included at T1, 927 participants commenced T2, and 846 commenced T3.
