Vanderbilt University is seeking autistic and non-autistic children aged 7-17 years to participate in a study about sensory processing in autism.

In this study, participants will complete some questionnaires and IQ and language testing, and be asked to complete a video game-like task while wearing an EEG cap. The session will take approximately 3 hours. Caregivers will be able to stay with their child for the entire time. Participants will receive $20 per hour of participation in the form of Amazon gift cards. The study will take place at Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN. Parking will be provided.
