Welcome to the Social Cognition Lab!
Our research is focused on how children learn about people and learn from people, and includes several interrelated lines of work. One major topic of our current research is children’s understanding of the mind–including their understanding of other people’s knowledge, beliefs, and feelings. The other major focus of our research concerns how children understand and learn about social groups–how they acquire positive and negative information about social groups, and how they come to understand that people hold biases against different social groups.
