Language Development Study - Northeastern University
At Northeastern University's Communication Analysis and Design Lab, we are conducting a Language Development Study looking at how the melody of speech is developed in children. Currently, we are recruiting 4, 7, and 11-year-old children who are typically developing (no language or hearing problems) and who speak English as their primary/only language. This project consists of two; 1-hour long sessions. During the first session your child's hearing will be tested, they will be asked to pronounce words, and they will be asked questions about pictures and words. The second session takes place in our lab's sound-proof booth where your child will play a computer game to imitate and produce sentences. Transportation costs are compensated and your child will receive $40 at the second session as appreciation for helping out our project! For any further information/questions, please contact Nicole atnusher@jbcc.harvard.edu. We look forward to hearing from you!
