This morning, the scheduled DCF session canceled because the child got sick in the car on the way to ICD, but Wendy went through the set up with me. I also made a few calls to potential participants but didn't talk to anyone.
This afternoon I started off with observing a DCF session and going through all of the set up and clean up steps with Wendy. There were a few issues with the sound from the camera on the computers, so I eventually sat in the family waiting room and watched on one of the laptops there. After that session I practiced the DCF tasks on a friend to get the routine set in, and it went pretty well. I have some more practicing to do this weekend to get ready for Wendy "testing" me next week! Later, I made a couple copies and cleaned up the stimuli, and then I did a little IPP entering at the end.
This afternoon I entered data into the database for IPP. I focused all of my time today entering online survey information. I entered all of the information provided, double checked that the subjects were not already in the database, and checked for their siblings as well (if they had any). I found a few errors in the surveys, most of which were presumably mistyped birth information such as having a sibling born one month after another. For these errors, I circled the information that I believed needed to be clarified and gave them to Josh so that he could ask the parents to clarify their responses.
