Brain, Emotions, and Thoughts Study

What is the purpose of this study?

The Brain Emotions and Thoughts study plans to look at the intergenerational transmission of anxiety and how mothers and children experience emotions.

Who is eligible to participate?

Monolingual mothers with a child aged 7 to 9 years old. 

What is required?

This is an in-person study. After completing a phone screen and a prescreen survey, we will schedule an appointment at our laboratory space located in KU Child and Family services clinic. During your visit, we will ask you and your child to complete questionnaires and computer tasks while we record your brain activity using small metal discs that fit into a light weight cap on your head. This  is a safe and easy way for us to learn how the brain responds to emotional information.

How do I sign up?
