Greetings Dr. Brown,
I am writing to respectfully request permission to use the MAAS for my Doctor of Nursing Practice project with the University of North Carolina- Chapel Hill School of Nursing. My purpose statement for my DNP project:
The purpose of this implementation and evaluation project is two-folded. 1: To assess the benefit of the use of a reliable, validated tool, such as, the Professional Quality of Life (ProQOL)
questionnaire, to help military healthcare providers self-identify risk of compassion fatigue to better manage and recover from its negative effects. 2: To determine if the use of an abbreviated Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program involving a mobile application and integrated web-based tools will help decrease symptoms of compassion fatigue and its components (stress and burnout) among a targeted military provider group.
Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns. V/R,
Natasha Best

to me
Yes you are welcome to use the MAAS for your study. You can find the scale, along with background normative and other information, on the 'Resources' page of my Lab website, the link for which is below. The 'Publications by topic' page has papers related to the validation of the MAAS. See especially Brown and Ryan (2003).
All the best with your research,
Kirk
