Researchers at the Australian Stuttering Research Centre are developing an internet treatment program—the iWestmead program—for children who stutter. iWestmead is based on the Westmead Program, an evidence-based treatment for children who stutter. The program is designed to teach parents how to implement treatment for stuttering with their child.
We are seeking participants to review and provide feedback on the iWestmead program. To participate, you will:
- reside in Australia
- be the parent of a child younger than 6 years of age who stutters
- have no previous experience with stuttering treatments for children.
Your feedback will be used to refine and improve the program. The study can take place remotely so you are able to participate in the comfort of your own home. You will be compensated for your time with a $100 gift card.
If you would like further information about this study, please see the flyer and Participant Information Statement.
If you or someone you know is interested in participating in this study, please email: Natasha.Trajkovski@uts.edu.au or Robyn.Lowe@uts.edu.au or Phone: (02) 9514 5314
This study has been approved by the University of Technology Sydney Human Research Ethics Committee (Approval number: ETH20-4885).
