RESEARCH STUDIES APPROVED BY CHADD LOOKING FOR PARTICIPANTS:

 

 1. Research study titled "Struggling during the Stimulant Shortage: A Qualitative Interview Study." 

     Benjamin Johnson

 

In this study we aim to capture the experiences of those impacted by the prescription stimulant shortage. Participants will engage in a one-hour Zoom interview for which they will receive $20 for their time. 

 

This study has been approved by the University of Queensland’s ethics board and by the CHADD organization and can be found here: https://chadd.org/research-studies/struggling-during-the-stimulant-shortage-a-qualitative-interview-study/. 

 

 

 2. Research Study - Special Education Rights Survey: Does your child have an IEP? If "yes," participate in a study examining your understanding of special education rights and the process by completing a 10–15 minute survey now. Every participant who finishes the survey can enter a raffle to win a $10 Amazon gift card or Starbucks gift card. If you are 18 years or older and a parent/guardian of a child aged 3 to 26 with an IEP, you can participate.
