Research Description
Social and cognitive development including pretend play, theory of mind, media effects on executive function, Montessori education
UNLEASH (Undergraduate Research)
We study how children's pretending, fantasy, imagination and interactions with media influence their cognitive and social development. Student research assistants help recruit participants, test children in the lab, and help with coding and data entry. Students will work closely with one or two graduate students on their current research projects. Applicants should have some experience working with children. The Early Development Lab is in Gilmer Hall.
