18 February: fyi -- prosody & autism, Edinburgh

Index of February 2002 | Index of year: 2002 | Full index


We have recently been awarded a research grant from the Scottish
Executive to investigate prosodic abilities of children with autism,
using Wells and Peppe's PEPS-C battery. As a result, we require a
individual with an honours degree in Speech and Language Therapy,
Linguistics or Psychology to work on this exciting new project. You
will be primarily concerned with the day-to-day operation of the
project: recruiting participants; administering psychometric and
prosodic assessments; developing therapy strategies; preparing papers,
presentations and workshops. Clinical experience of children with
autism and administering standardised tests is desirable but not
essential.

The post offers opportunities for teaching and part time registration
for a higher degree and is suitable for job share.

£16k-£23k, Fixed term 2 years
