This is the beginning phase of an extensive research project, which will result in a published book. No prior experience is necessary. This is a wonderful opportunity for you to learn the stages of research, and it would look great on a resume or a curriculum vita! There is an immediate need for students on Fridays, from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm and Saturdays, from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm. We are asking interested students to commit to three months for one and/or both of these days. However, there is flexibility in the schedule and we are willing to make accommodations when possible. Please contact Maria at United Psychological Services at 586-323-3620, Monday through Thursday from 10am-5pm if you are interested and able! Project Description: This is a research project using a clinical sample of approximately 4,000 to 5,000 cases of children age five years through adulthood with testing and self-report measures. Testing is from approx 1990 through 2009. Testing involved the use of neuropsychological test measures, as well as intellectual assessment, and self-report measures to establish the diagnosis of ADD/ADHD. The purpose of the study it to assess different variables such as sleep, inattention, combined versus hyperactivity, symptoms seen on the testing versus the self-report measures, teacher versus parent measures, trends in the adult measures, adult symptoms and so on. A pilot sample done several years ago for girls and women using just the self-report measure isolated more symptoms of attention than hyperactivity when the diagnosis was ADD versus ADD plus. This promises to be a rather unique project given the use of neuropsychological evaluation along with self report measures and the lengthy time of testing as well as the number of cases involved.
