National Couples’ Health and Time Study (NCHAT) Call for Proposals

The National Couples’ Health and Time Study team is taking proposals for items to be added to the next wave of NCHAT, slated for late Spring 2025. 

NCHAT is a nationally-representative, multi-method study of cohabiting and married individuals aged 20 to 65 who were in a same- or different-gender couple in the United States. Our study includes oversamples of persons who are LGBTQ+ and who are Hispanic/Latina/o/é, Black, and Asian. The main respondent sample includes 3,642 respondents. The baseline survey focused on physical health, psychological well-being, health behaviors, stressors, discrimination, relationship functioning, emotion regulation and racial trauma. A short follow-up survey (Wave 2) was administered one-year after the baseline. Many measures from Wave 1 will be included in the Wave 3 survey.

With this initiative, the NCHAT team aims to foster innovative research on health disparities by providing researchers with the opportunity to field their questions without the burden of high startup costs. The goal is to widen the playing field, allowing a more diverse group of researchers to contribute to survey content. 

NCHAT is accepting applications from scholars with a Ph.D. or equivalent degree.
