IMPACT
We are currently recruiting for the IMPACT project, to test the validity of a new tablet-based assessment for childhood psychiatric disorders, based on the new criteria and definitions of the DSM-5. Children between the ages of 5-18, with and without previous diagnoses, are invited to participate in 2 short visits at McMaster University. Parents are invited to complete questionnaires, and children will receive a gift card for their participation. Please contact Amber at 905-525-9140 ext. 24784 or by email.

Targeted Cognitive Training: Assessment and Plasticity in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

We are recruiting children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) who are between the ages of 3-7 years old to take part in our intervention research study.

Background Information:
This study will test a new computer-based program called “A Computerized Cognitive Intervention Solution” (ACCIS), which aims to improve the way children with ASD think and solve problems. If successful, the program may provide long-term benefits to children with ASD.

Who Can Participate in the Study?
Participation entails coming to McMaster University for two or three 2-hour visits. For each visit, the study team will provide you with a parking pass to avoid incurring a parking cost. Your child will also get to choose a small prize.


If you are interested in participating in this study or would like to learn more about this opportunity, please contact
Dr. Diana Parvinchi at: dparvinchi@mcmaster.ca, or Dr. Geoffrey Hall at (905)525-9140, extension 23033.
