Calling All PWS Caregivers: Participate in a Skin Picking Survey

Does your child living with PWS skin-pick?

Sent on behalf of Kasey Bedard, PhD, BCBA-D

Join a study evaluating the impact of a behavior-analytic caregiver training program on skin-picking in children with Prader-Willi Syndrome. Participation is fully remote. Training will take place across eight weeks, for 1-2 hour per week. All sessions will be recorded.

If you are a primary caregiver living with your child diagnosed with PWS, and if your child with PWS is between the ages of 5-16 years who skin picks and has at least one lesion, you and your child may qualify for this study.

Caregivers must be at least 18 years of age, speak and read English fluently, be able to participate in an online training program that includes synchronous video sessions, and have access to an internet-connected device to access the online training sessions.
