Children between 6-11 years old are needed for a paid research study

Dr. Tina Grieco-Calub, PhD, at the University of Illinois – Chicago is conducting a research study that is looking at how visual speech cues affect children’s ability to process language. 

Your child may be eligible if they: 

• Are between 6 and 11 years of age.
• Are native English speakers. 
• Have normal or corrected-to-normal vision. 
• Have normal hearing. 
• Have bilateral hearing loss. 
• Have no history of cognitive, language, or global developmental delay. 

If you agree to participate you and/or your child will complete: 

1. Child and family questionnaires to determine your child’s eligibility for the study. 
2. Three study visits at the Institute for Juvenile Research (IJR) during which your child will complete cognitive and language assessments. One of the visits can be completed remotely. They will also receive a free hearing screening. Each study visit lasts approximately 45-60 minutes. 

Families will be compensated up to $90 for their time. Free parking is available.
