Participation Invitation Letter

Dear Invitee,
My name is Saimary Rivero. I am a doctoral student at Walden University’s Clinical Psychology
Program. I am kindly requesting your participation in a doctoral research study that I am
conducting titled: “The Effect of Applied Behavior Analysis and Acceptance and Commitment
Therapy on Parental Involvement”. The intention is to assess for differences indifference in parent
involvement regarding handling their children with ASD between those exposed to both ABA and
ACT interventions compared to those who were only exposed to ABA training. The study involves
completing basic demographic information and one surveys: Parent Involvement Questionnaire
(PIQ) (Solish et al., 2015). Participation is completely voluntary, and you may withdraw from the
study at any time. The study is completely anonymous; therefore, it does not require you to provide
your name or any other identifying information. If you would like to participate in the study, please
read the Informed Consent letter below. To begin the study, click the survey link at the end. Your
participation in the research will be of great importance to assist in social change in ensuring that
parents of children with Autism are receiving adequate and effective service. Thank you for your
time and participation.

Sincerely,
Saimary Rivero, MS, Doctoral Student
Walden University.
