Post a Research Study


CHADD is indefinitely unable to respond to requests for posting research study requests. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and hope to renew this service in the future. 


CHADD's Professional Advisory Board Research Subcommittee must approve any and all requests from researchers seeking study participants through CHADD. This approval is required both for studies requesting to be posted on the CHADD Web site, as well as studies requesting to seek participants through a CHADD Local Chapter.;

The following criteria will be used to determine if CHADD will approve such requests:

  1. Proposed study has scientific integrity and is directly related to advancing the body of knowledge regarding ADHD.
  2. Proposed study does not harm the mission of CHADD.
  3. Funding:
    1. If proposed study is federally funded or funded through a private, non-profit foundation, approved-requests will be permitted at no charge.
    2. If proposed study is funded by a for-profit organization, approved requests will be charged an administrative fee.

Note: CHADD is unable to consider for review research proposals that are undertaken independently and without institutional affiliation.

Requests to post research studies must contain the following:

  1. 1-page overview describing the purpose of the study and including identification of the funding type (government, non-profit, for-profit) and source.
  2. Letter of approval from Institutional Review Board (IRB) for the Protection of Human Subjects.
  3. Letter of approval from Institutional Review Board (IRB) for the Protection of Human Subjects
  4. Curriculum vitae of principal investigator(s).
  5. "Research Study Details" page (for Web site requests only, to be used after approval):
    1. Date after which new study participants will no longer be accepted;
    2. Contact name, with email address and/or phone number;
    3. Brief description of study (250 words or less).

This process will take 2-4 weeks. Once your information has been reviewed, you will receive notice of the acceptance or rejection of your submission.

CHADD policy prohibits the endorsement by CHADD or any CHADD Chapter of any publication, product, service or treatment.
