How Parents Understand Their Child’s Emotions and Behavioural Challenges

Title: How Parents Understand Their Child's Emotions and Behavioural Challenges

Description: Our lab is conducting an online study to learn more about how parents make sense of their child’s emotions and behaviours. Specifically, we are recruiting parents of youth who demonstrate challenging behaviours (e.g., aggression, low empathy, little emotion). The study involves doing a brief online screening survey and a one-on-one online interview in English. Participation is entirely voluntary and participants will be compensated for their time with a gift-card equivalent to $35CAD. This research can help us improve future support resources for families and children in this population.

Specifics: Study Population:
Parents and primary caregivers of child or teen with challenging behaviours

Participant Obligation:
Complete a 10-minute online screening survey and a 60-minute Zoom interview in English.
