attention project
 

  • Does your child like Thomas the Tank Engine and Barney the Dinosaur?

  • Would he or she find it fun to play on a computer?

  • Is your child aged between 18 months and 4 years?

  • Does he or she have an Autism Spectrum Condition diagnosis?


  • If you answered ‘Yes’ to these questions then your child is eligible for this study looking at attention and perception in children. The study takes approximately 2 hours and involves a visit to Cambridge at a time that suits you. Your child will be seated in front of a computer where your child has to find Barney the dinosaur, and where clips of Thomas the Tank Engine are used to keep your child’s attention.

    If interested please email Kimberly Peabody or call 01223 746 062 for more information.
