There were three studies on the Transition Programme which relied on the involvement of young people - the longitudinal study; the YETI study; and the Q-Sort Study. Details of these are given below
There were around 370 young people involved in the Longitudinal Study, which was the largest study in the Programme.
Below are some of the previous newsletters that the Young People taking part in the longitudinal study received from the Programme

About 15 young people from the longitudinal study also took part in a more detailed study called 'YETI'.
The aim of this study was to explore what young people want most from health services as they become young adults. Young people are not all the same; they will have had different experiences of growing up and different experiences of using the NHS, and because of this they may have different ideas about what they want most from health services they'll be using in future.
