<![CDATA[Participants Needed for Categorization Study !]]>Sun, 20 Jun 2010 14:44:29 -0800http://caiomiguel.org/1/post/2010/06/participants-needed-for-categorization-study.htmlWe are looking for children between ages 3 and 6 with a diagnosis of autism to participate in a study about novel categorization. Participants will learn to receptively discriminate many pictures and then tested to see whether they can sort the pictures by category without direct reinforcement.

Participants must be able to sit at a table and attend for at least 3 minutes without disruptive behavior. Sessions may be conducted in-home or on campus. If you'd like to receive more information contact Ms. Vissy Kobari-Wright at vivmay77@aol.com]]>
