Researchers at Seattle Children’s are looking for caregivers of 2 to 12 year old children without autism spectrum disorder or challenging behaviors (e.g., aggression, destruction) that require intervention to take part in an online survey study and an optional in-person EEG visit. Parents will be compensated with a $50 gift card for completing the questionnaires and a $50 gift card for completing the in-person visit.
What are the goals of the study?
The goal of this study is to study parent and child problem-solving and emotions in an intervention that includes parents.
What will happen during the visit or online?
Parents will complete an online survey (about 30 minutes) about their and their child’s problem-solving and emotions and in a one-time in-person EEG and cognitive visit that includes problem-solving and other tasks.
How will this help families?
The study is being done to learn more about parents’ emotion and mental processes.
