What will happen in the study?

This study includes 3 visits over 1 year. Here are some of the things that will happen in this study:

Your child:

• Will be asked to interact with one of our study team members in two settings- a floor play activity and a table play activity – while we observe and collect information about his/her communication.
• Participate in three other activities that will help us to look at their problem solving and communication skills.
• Will be video-recorded at each visit while completing the activities to help us fully evaluate his/her communication skills.

You, as the parent or guardian, will:

• Be asked to complete some questionnaires that will give us more information about his/her communication skills and behavior.
• Be asked questions about your child’s daily living skills.

Parents or guardians interested in having their child participate will be given a consent form that thoroughly explains all of the details of the study. A member of the study staff will review the consent form with you and will be sure that all of your questions are answered.
