  • Human Subjects Requested: Children's Memory Study

    Study Examining Memory in Children Ages 3-7

    We are recruiting children between the ages of 3 and 7 years of age to participate in a study examining memory in children.  The purpose of the study is to determine whether visual and auditory memory differ in children with and without language impairments. The study will help identify factors that influence children’s development of language. We hope these results will lead to better assessment and intervention procedures for children identified with language impairments. In return for your participation in the study, we will provide you with a summary of your child’s performance on the language and nonverbal measures used to determine your child’s qualification for the study.
