Child Attention and Learning Lab

Wednesday, May 16, 2012

We are conducting a research study to determine whether children with attention problems have cognitive or learning problems that could explain why so many affected children have  peer relationship problems and academic difficulties. We hope that this information will help in the development of new treatments for children with attention and learning problems.
