Before your session:
- Arriving on campus you will follow well marked signs to one of our free and conveniently located Life Span parking spaces
- One of our research assistants will meet you at your parking spot and escort you up to our waiting room.
Upon your arrival:
- Your child will have the chance to play with a selection of fun toys and warm-up to the new environment (don’t worry if your child is shy – we always wait until the child is comfortable before we begin a session)
- You will have the opportunity to read over the consent form and ask any questions you may have
The session:
- When you and your child agree to begin a research assistant will invite your child to join them in the child-friendly testing room. You will be able to watch everything on camera from our separate viewing room
- During the session your child will complete a series of fun game-like tasks (i.e. Simon-says type games, memory search games), while you watch and learn about how they think about their social world
After the session:
- Your child gets to pick out a toy from our selection of prizes to bring home as a thank you for participation!
