WELCOME

Welcome to the home of the Children's Learning Clinic-IV (CLC-IV). Our research clinic is located on the beautiful campus of the University of Central Florida in Orlando, FL. The CLC-IV is associated with the Ph.D. graduate program in Clinical Psychology at UCF.

**********************************************************************************

NEW EXCITING OPPORTUNITY: The Children’s Learning Clinic-IV (CLC-IV) in the Psychology Department at UCF is looking for typically developing boys between 8-11 years old to participate in a research study. The aim of the project is to better understand the complex relationship among children’s attention, memory and activity level. In exchange for your child’s participation, we will provide parents with a free comprehensive evaluation that includes a standardized intelligence (WISC-IV) and academic achievement test, a comprehensive assessment of your child’s short-term memory, working memory, long-term memory, visual problem solving abilities, vigilance, and objective measurement of activity level.

All parents receive a comprehensive report detailing the results of the assessment, and specific recommendations relevant to optimizing learning and memory in their children. A telephone interview (~10 minutes) asks questions about your child’s behavior to determine initial project eligibility. Standardized parent and teacher questionnaires are sent subsequently to parents in stamped envelopes.
Participation in the project requires attendance for 2-4 sessions to complete historical and developmental interviews (parent) and standardized testing (child), as well as four, 3-hour visits scheduled one-week apart (during the summer months) to assess memory and other cognitive abilities. Children play games during multiple breaks and receive a prize for their participation each week. If you would like more information about the project please contact the CLC-IV (407) 823-5773 or Dr. Mark Rapport, CLC-IV Director, at mdrapport@gmail.com or visit the CLC-IV website at www.childrenslearningclinic.com.
