This project will be focusing on children between the ages of
24 and 60 months with developmental delays, as well as typically
developing children and their families. The study involves two to
three sessions of research activities that take place at our lab
in Boston. During these visits, the children will participate in
a series of play-based activities with their parents, our trained
research assistants, and occasionally other children. Parents will
also be asked to complete a set of questionnaires that can be filled
out at home or in our offices. The children and their families will
be seen over a period of two years, to explore developmental changes
in social, communicative and emotional processes during these early
years. Throughout the duration of the study our staff will provide
feedback and answer parents’ questions about their child’s
evaluations. We will also reimburse travel costs, and offer the
child a small gift after each visit as a token of our appreciation!

We expect that this research will provide important information
about the social and emotional functioning of children, and the
findings of this project will have the potential to contribute to
the development of specific strategies designed to help foster stronger
social skills and adaptive behaviors in children with developmental
delays.
We conduct our studies at Boston University School of Medicine.
Appointments are scheduled at your convenience. We will cover your
transportation and parking costs, and offer gifts or payment to
our participants.
