Purpose of the Database

We’re creating a contact list of families who might be interested in taking part in future research studies. This list will include some basic information about you and your child (such as birth year, gender, and ethnicity) along with your contact details (like phone number, email, and home address).

Researchers at Laurier will use this database to reach out about upcoming studies that look at how people grow and develop — from childhood through adulthood. Topics may include things like how children make moral decisions, form a sense of self, build relationships, manage emotions, and succeed in school.
