Language and Attention Project

The Waisman Center needs your help!

We're trying to reach families of 8-11 year olds who have high functioning autism to see if they'll come to the Waisman Center for two visits lasting about two hours each. We're investigating the connection between language skills and executive functions so the kids will be asked to complete book-based tests of reasoning and language as well as computer-based tasks of attention, memory and impulse control.We offer breaks and small prizes to make the visits more fun as well as $150 for completing both visits.
