Effects of Tic Suppression and Behavior Treatment on Current and Subsequent Cognitive Functioning

The UCLA Research team is looking for kids and teens ages 7-17 with chronic tics to participate in a study that hopes to better understand how tics may affect learning. Children may also be eligible for behavior treatment for their tics. Participation requires 3 assessment visits each lasting 2 to 3 hours and 8 weeks of behavior treatment. Eligible participants will receive comprehensive diagnostic and cognitive assessments as well as behavior treatment for chronic tic disorders.
