HAVE YOU EVER HAD PROBLEMS WITH EATING AND YOUR WEIGHT? DO YOU HAVE CHILDREN?

We are conducting a study looking at the thinking style of children of mothers who have ever had any problems or worries related to weight or eating.

We are looking for mothers who have a child between the ages of 8 and 15 years old.

If you choose to participate, you/your child will:

• Complete some questionnaires
• Play computerized brain games
• Complete an IQ test
• Receive the results of your tests
• Be reimbursed for your travel costs and receive a $20 voucher

Important Note: We understand that you might not have disclosed any problems or worries about your eating to your child. For this study, we will not disclose or discuss this information with your child.

You are under no obligation to take part. Participation is voluntary and you can withdraw at any time. Data confidentiality will be maintained.
