Small Factory Productions is recruiting children ages 5 to 12, who may need a little assistance socializing with friends, for a social skills research study conducted by researchers at Princeton University. Students will be placed into a social group that best fits their age and skill level. The lessons being covered include: * Eye Contact
* Introductions
* Generating Topics
* Topic Elaboration
* Topic Closure
* Personal Space
* Facial Expressions
* Body Language
There are 4 different weekly sessions available: Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays - 5:15 to 6:45 p.m. The cost is $250 for 10 classes ($25 per class; insurance may cover this cost).
The study will be conducted at locations in Fair Haven, Hazlet and Manalapan.
Students will need to schedule a free evaluation prior to the commencement of the group (first assessment will be May 21).
Students interested can submit their information at this link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1hQ40c99vnmh1G3FH49WRrbvbi2mOTpLJn0oUYNEGHEw/viewform?c=0&w=1
Small Factory will contact the students who have been selected.

If the researchers are benefiting from observing the kids, shouldn't it be free, or shouldn't the group be paying the kids to participate?

ReplyDeleteI was looking at this more as a medical service or more as a Children's Specialty Hospital type of thing.
