*Online Study*
People transgress in countless ways. 🧐 Sometimes they might break someone's possessions or a promise, and other times they might misinform others. But how do children reason about these different kinds of transgressions? We are looking for 4- and 5-year-olds to help us answer this question from the comfort of home.

Hi All ❤️

This is an exciting eye-tracking study that we have at the Babylab for infants currently aged 14-15 months 👶 This study consists of some known and made up words and some interesting objects and will look at which objects infants prefer to look at when hearing these words 🧠 we also ask parents some questions about their own accents 🌍

Babylab Babylab - a research lab for the cognitive psychology of child development

Hi Plymouth parents!
We are looking for bilingual children (aged 35-37 months or in this age range within the next 6 months) to help us with this simple study!
This study consists of a 20-minute card game, where 3 flashcards showing different objects/actions (e.g., a dog, jumping) are layed out in front of your child at a time and they are asked to name one "What is this?" or point to one "Where is the dog?".
We also ask the parents to complete a Language Exposure Questionnaire (LEQ), which tells us what languages your child hears, and for how long.
All participants will receive a £5 Amazon voucher, certificate, and prize!
If you and your child would be interested in participating, please DM us, or email us at [email protected] 😄
Thank you!
