______________________________________________
Dear Parents/Caregivers/Close support people of adults with Down Syndrome:

I am currently conducting a research project on spatial navigation abilities in adults (35-65 years old) with Down Syndrome.

In this project, individuals with Down Syndrome will play some FUN computer, board, and paper games. Parents/caregivers/close support people who are familiar with the day to day life of adults with Down Syndrome will complete questionnaires. The testing will take about 4 hours and be broken up over 2-3 days with breaks included. Participants with Down Syndrome will be compensated with a $120 gift card for completing the study.

Our lab is located at the Center for Clinical Services at Montclair State University (147 Clove Road, Little Falls, NJ) next to Lot 60. We have free parking in “reserved” spots in the front of the building. Testing can also take place in private homes and service provider sites.
