Project end date: Ongoing project

Contact project organizer

Researchers at Queen’s University are conducting a study of the overlapping symptoms between depression and developmental disorders such as ASD and ADHD. Adolescents both with and without depression, and with and without ASD or ADHD, are invited to participate, along with their parent.

The child will be asked to complete a questionnaire about their feelings over the last two weeks. This will take approximately 30 minutes. The parent will also be asked fill out a questionnaire about how they believe their son/daughter has been feeling over the past two weeks and his/her behavior. This should take approximately an hour. If the parents feels that this would be too challenging for their child, their portion can be skipped, with only the parent completing the questionnaire. For their participation, parent and child will each receive a $10 Amazon e-gift card.

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the study will be taking place over Zoom, a video conferencing program. If you and your child are interested in participating in the study, please reach out to [email protected] for more information.
