University Study

We are looking for families with children living in Dunedin who identify as New Zealand European (Pakeha) with a child or children between the ages of 6 years to 7½ years old for a study on children’s understanding of the social world.

We want to investigate the style and content of conversations between parents and their children and to determine how they relate to cultural identification, parenting goals and children’s social understanding.

You and your child would come into the University for two sessions this year and possibly two sessions next year. Each session is approximately 60 minutes and we are flexible with session time scheduling (e.g. afterschool and weekend times are available).

If you are interested please phone Dr Jane Carroll on 027 4117394 (or text me and I’ll phone you) or email: jane.carroll@otago.ac.nz
