Queen's University Study Opportunity
Description
Hello there!
We are the ASD Studies lab at Queen’s University, a group that studies ASD and other neurodevelopmental disorders. We are conducting an online study called Investigating Depressive Symptomatology in Autistic Adolescents where we are investigating the overlapping symptoms between depression and developmental disorders such as ASD. We are looking for adolescents, 12 to 18 years old, including autistic adolescents and adolescents of typical development. Your child will be asked to complete a questionnaire about their feelings over the last two weeks. This will take approximately 30 minutes. We would also have you fill out a questionnaire about your child’s feelings, behaviours, and emotions over the two weeks. Then you will be asked to complete another questionnaire about your child’s behaviours and emotions over the past 6 months. Together, this should take approximately an hour and a half. However, if you feel that this would be too challenging for your child, we can skip their portion and only get you to complete the questionnaire. For your participation, your child will receive a $10 Amazon gift-card and you will receive a $20 Amazon gift-card over email.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the study will be taking place over a video conferencing program called Zoom. If you and your child are interested in participating in the study, please reach out to asd@queensu.ca and we will provide you with more information and plan a date and time that works best for you. We look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you for your time!
