Our Mission

Human social life requires understanding the intentions, perceptions and emotions that organize and motivate others’ actions. At the Social Learning and Development Laboratory we investigate infants’, and young children’s understanding of these aspects of the social world, including that of typically developing young children and young children with developmental disabilities. In addition, we are committed to conducting research aimed at improving the lives of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
