What is involved?
Your child will be in the research study for approximately 1 to 2 weeks. Participation in this research study will involve 2 study visits, 1 assessment visit, and 1 driving simulator visit. A detailed list of procedures will be provided to parents or guardians interested in knowing more about this study.
What are the benefits?
If you agree to allow your child to take part in this research study, your child may not receive a direct medical benefit. However, the information learned from this research study may benefit patients with ADHD in the future.
Will I get all the facts about the study?
Parents interested in having their child participate will be given a consent form that thoroughly explains all of the details of the study. The form covers all of the procedures, the risks, the benefits, the pay, who to contact with questions or concerns and more. A member of the study staff will review the consent form with you and will be sure that all of your questions are answered.
