Under the supervision of the PI, Dr. Larisa Heiphetz Solomon, the Research Staff Assistant will support research activities in Columbia's Social and Moral Cognition Lab (https://columbiasamclab.weebly.com). Studies in the lab focus on how children and adults understand their social world. We are currently investigating how people in different age groups make moral decisions, reason about and interact with people who are different from them, reason about supernatural entities (e.g., God), and perceive the criminal justice system.
