Little Listeners Project (Ellis Weismer & Saffran)

We are looking for children to participate in research on the UW-Madison campus about how toddlers learn language. We are looking for typically developing children 18-24 months old and children with diagnosed or suspected ASD between 24 and 35 months. Visits will take place at the Waisman Center across from UW-Hospital and remotely via a secure virtual platform. Your child will watch short videos and do play based activities while you observe and complete questionnaires. Families with typically developing children will be compensated $95 at the end of the second in-person session for participating. Those with children in the ASD group will be compensated $225 at the end of the second in-person session. Complete the online signup form at https://littlelisteners.waisman.wisc.edu/.
