Clinical/Child Development Expert Needed for Content Evaluation (ADHD Parenting Book)

Posted yesterday

Worldwide

Summary

I've written a 33,791-word book on executive functioning and ADHD in school-age children and am seeking a qualified expert to provide a professional opinion on the content's accuracy, clarity, and practical value. This is not a request for a review, testimonial, or endorsement. I'm looking for an informed evaluation of the material's validity from someone with relevant credentials. The expert's role is advisory only. The book teaches parents a coaching-based framework for building seven executive functioning skills in children with ADHD: task initiation, planning and organization, working memory, emotional regulation, flexible thinking, impulse control, and time management. It is written for a general parenting audience and draws on peer-reviewed research throughout. The file will be provided to you as a PDF. It is not in final book format. The manuscript will be shared under mutual confidentiality until publication. Your written commentary (approx. 300–500 words) may be quoted in part or in whole within the book or its marketing materials, with your permission. You may decline to have your commentary quoted publicly. This use is optional and does not imply additional compensation beyond the agreed project fee. I will contact you through Upwork should I seek permission for use. How Your Commentary Will Be Used: Your feedback may be quoted in the book's front matter, description, or marketing materials in the following format: • "Clinical consultation provided by [Name, Credentials]" • Selected quotes from your commentary may be included (with your approval of final wording) • You will NOT be described as "endorsing" or "recommending" the book Ideal Candidates May Include: • Clinical or Pediatric Neuropsychologists (PhD/PsyD) with executive functioning assessment experience • Developmental-Behavioral Pediatricians (MD, FAAP with DBP subspecialty) • Child Psychologists specializing in ADHD (PhD/PsyD) • School Psychologists with an ADHD or executive functioning specialization • Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA) with pediatric ADHD experience Deliverables: • A short written commentary (300–500 words) offering your professional opinion on the book's content validity • Three areas to address: accuracy of the neurological and executive functioning claims, appropriateness of the coaching guidance for a general parenting audience, and responsible treatment of sensitive topics such as parental frustration, dysregulation, and family dynamics • Due within 2 weeks (14 calendar days) of project start. Project start being defined as the day I make the manuscript available to you. Requirements: • Ability to provide documentation of credentials (e.g., scanned certificate, professional profile, published work). I may ask before final hiring. • Clear, constructive writing style suitable for general readers • One round of clarification questions from me about your commentary is included • Candidates with an established professional online presence such as a clinic website, published articles, a LinkedIn profile, or academic affiliation page will be given preference, as this allows readers to independently verify credentials and explore the consultant's broader work • This project may engage more than one consultant. If your commentary is quoted, it will appear alongside commentary from other credentialed reviewers. Each consultant's contribution will be attributed individually. Budget: $75–$150 USD flat rate, depending on experience and scope of feedback
