Ty W. Boyer

I am a Professor and Chair of the Department of Psychology at Georgia Southern University.  I mostly teach courses on child development and research methods and analyses. My own research examines cognitive development, with a broad approach and interests in quite a number of topics, including action perception-representation-and-understanding, spatial, numerical, and mathematical cognition, and judgment, decision-making, and risk-taking, which I consider from infancy, through childhood, into adolescence, and beyond.
