Welcome to the CMU Cognitive and Social Development Lab!

How do children come to know what they know? How do children use their knowledge to learn new things? How and why do children develop social biases, including racial biases? How can we foster the development of positive racial attitudes in children? These are some of the questions we seek to address in our research.
