UNLV is seeking children who do not speak in school or in social settings to be part of a study.

The study, which is being conducted by psychology doctoral student Jennifer Vecchio in conjunction with psychology professor Christopher Kearney, will focus on children ages 4 to 10.

Assessments of the children will be conducted free of charge, but parents will be expected to participate in a comprehensive assessment procedure that involves teacher input. Parents will be provided with their child's assessment results.

Parents interested in having a child participate in the study should contact Vecchio at 895-3305 or at jenv@lvcm.com.
