Spoken Language Comprehension in Adolescents
How do adolescents with and without autism understand the meaning of language that’s communicated via rhythm, timing, and intonation of speech?
Lead Researcher: Loisa Bennetto
Reimbursement provided.
In this online study, an adolescent will schedule a Zoom appointment with a researcher and complete a computer-based listening study that may take up to 45 minutes. The parent will then complete background information surveys, which may take up to 20 minutes. Participants will be compensated via an electronic gift card. We hope that this research will lead to a better understanding of everyday spoken language communication and social interactions in adolescents with and without autism.

Eligibility:
We are currently recruiting adolescent boys aged 13-17 without autism. All adolescents must be fluent in English. They cannot have autism or an intellectual disability. They should be able to complete the study independently (audio support is provided for children who are not strong readers).
