About our Lab:
Our focus is to understand how multiple factors in development impact early infant perceptual and motor behavior. We use movement analysis and eye-tracking to study the development of spontaneous behavior, reaching and/or locomotor skills (crawling, creeping, walking) in infants, often in conjunction with visual attention, hand preference, or parental interactions.
Undergraduate research opportunities (PSYC 489):
- Help us collect data from an infant population
- Work hands-on with behavioral data
- Learn how to code behavioral data
- Learn how to analyze coded data and prepare a poster presentation
- Learn how to discuss empirical paper that are part of the research
- Great for graduate school PREPARATION!
Prerequisites:
- PSYC 110 (or equivalent)
- At least 1 upper level course (300 or above)
