Academic Research: Looking to Learn from Children Diagnosed with ADHD

As a doctoral student from Saybrook University, I am inviting you to participate in my research study aimed at the experience of children ages 6-8 years old who have been diagnosed with ADHD. Participation will contribute to advancing knowledge of children with ADHD.

• Are willing/able to participate in a short zoom call with their caregiver
• Are willing/able to participate in an in person focus group with other same-aged children also diagnosed with ADHD
• Are comfortable speaking/understanding English

As the caregiver, you must be willing to

• Participate in a short Zoom call with your child 
• Give consent for your child to participate
• Be comfortable speaking/understanding/reading English.
