We are studying how babies learn and develop from birth onwards. As babies can't tell us what they know, to understand how babies think and develop requires the use of a range of methods. These include
-asking parents to tell us about their child's progress
-watching a child's natural behaviour alone or with a parent
-watching a child's behaviour during social play with one of us.
-watching a child's responses to a set of structured game-like tests using toys
-recording how and where a baby looks to interesting pictures or videos presented on a computer screen
-recording brain activity with a special sensor net when a baby looks and listens to interesting sounds, pictures or videos
Some of our projects use only one method and some use all. for some projects we may need parents to bring thier babies to us more than once at any age.
If you live in or around East London and are interested in participating in our studies, please sign up. Please mention your name and contact details as well as your baby’s name and date of birth/due date.
