Researchers need kids for disability study

Kansas University researchers are seeking young children to participate in a study on communication disorders.

The researchers need children ages 2 through 4 who have a developmental disability and expressive-language delay and who have the motor skills needed to use a computer touch screen.

The study, which will happen during three weeks in February, will examine children’s vocabulary using picture displays.

The deadline for signing up is Wednesday. Participants will not be paid.
