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)
