A quick update. You can now directly sign up to participate in Mia's study through the Children Helping Science platform. You can do so here: lookit.mit.edu/studies/c194...
My master's student, Mia Chen, is looking for 5- to 6-year-olds to test. Because this study takes place online via Zoom, you can participate even if you live in a different state!. If you have a 5- to 6-year-old (or know someone who does), please consider participating.
📣 Applications are due this Friday!
