My name is Irene Koutelou and I am a postgraduate student in the School of Psychology at the University of Dundee. I am currently working on a research project looking at executive function in children with and without ADHD and/or reading difficulties. The study is being supervised by Dr Josie Booth.

The purpose of this research study is to explore the development of cognitive skills such as working memory, inhibition and fluency. I will need children at age 10-12 year old to complete four game like tasks. In addition parents will be asked to complete some questionnaires about their child's every day behaviour and about how they are able support them. The study is one session of testing,around 45 minutes.

Parents who are interested can contact me via email.
