This is a great donation amount for most people. We are grateful to all of our supporters!

This donation will cover the cost of a single session including compensation for the parents who bring in their child, stickers to be earned during the session, and a toy given at the end of the session. This level ensures that lab members will get valuable training through working with children.

This level will pay for two sessions, or one participant in one of our three studies. This level ensures that a student will complete all relevant tasks for that participant, and receive the full experience from recruitment through communicating results to parents.

One of our studies is longitudinal, meaning that we want to see how children's speech changes over time. It requires five sessions. Support at the Specialist level will allow us to fund all five visits for a participant in this study.

Typically, scientists must seek "external funding" from an agency like the National Science Foundation in order to garner this level of support. Obtaining external funding can often be one of the highlights of a scientist's career. For one study, we anticipate 25 participants, each completing 2 sessions. This donation level will fully fund that study.
