The Parent and Sibling Experience of Children with Autism

An opportunity to participate in research on the experience of having a school-aged child with Autism in the family.

This study focuses on sources of stress for parents of children with Autism and the nature of the sibling relationships between children on the spectrum and their typically developing siblings. I am looking for interested parents who have a school aged (K-6) child with ASD enrolled in an inclusive or contained classroom, who also have at least one typically developing child. Participants will be asked to complete a survey which should take about half an hour to finish.

If you are interested or have any questions, please contact Emily Galen at e.galen@hotmail.com or 617-287-6376.

This study is being conducted through University of Massachusetts, Boston.
