Social Skills Research at Western Washington University

Would you and your child like to be a part of an important social skills research project at Western Washington University?

This research is being conducted by Kimberly Peters, Ph.D., CCC-SLP/A, Department Chair & Associate Professor and Aural Rehabilitation Clinic Director at Western Washington University. Ms. Peters also has a son who uses bi-lateral cochlear implants.

They’re looking at social cognition (theory of mind) and language skills in preschool aged, early identified children who are deaf or hard of hearing who use either hearing aids or cochlear implants.

Please see the following PDF for more information.

Note- Ms. Peters is available to come up to Vancouver to conduct the research so there would be no need to travel to Bellingham.

Edited to add: The study does not have approval to include kids with conductive loss/who use BAHA right now, but they may expand our recruitment criteria. BCHV will let everyone know if we hear otherwise.
