BC Child Study

We've teamed up with Boston College's Cooperation Lab, led by Dr. Katie McAuliffe, for a 10–15 minute study delving into how social cognition and behavior, especially cooperation, develop in children. Your child, aged 6 to 12, can take part with your permission. The study explores how considering different perspectives shapes sharing behavior. To learn more and express interest, please read the letter below and complete the electronic consent form before Sunday 1/28.
