The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $337,206 Project Grant titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: THE DEVELOPMENTAL COURSE OF CEREBRAL LATERALIZATION FOR SPACE AND LANGUAGE" to Georgetown University. This 4-year grant, which began on Aug 1, 2023, supports research to investigate how the brain's hemispheric specialization for language and visual-spatial abilities develops in children ages 5-11. Using behavioral testing and functional...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $466,640 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to The Trustees of Princeton University. The award, titled "CAREER: The Receptive Field as a Window into the Developing Brain," supports research to measure how the parietal lobe and cerebellum in the brain mature during typical development and support a child's ability to visually attend to their environment. The project aims to understand...
This $325,000 National Science Foundation project grant to Carnegie Mellon University, funded through the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), will support research examining the neural basis of mathematical cognition in early childhood and potential gender differences. The four-year award beginning September 2022 will fund the collection of longitudinal functional magnetic resonance imaging data and behavioral testing of children ages 4-8, along with tracking...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $160,000 supports an early career postdoctoral research fellowship examining how children acquire vocabulary related to spatial relations. The research, conducted under the sponsorship of Dr. John Trueswell at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Barbara Landau at Johns Hopkins University, will investigate how typically developing children learn the meanings of spatial terms...
This $382,535 National Science Foundation project grant supports research at Yale University to develop understanding of attention in preschool-aged children. The Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences award falls under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which promotes basic research and education in these fields. Specifically, the two-year project will investigate the emergence of selective and sustained attention to socially relevant audiovisual...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant, awarded to Georgetown University, provides $230,454 to fund research aimed at understanding how children and adults learn language and visual patterns. The key objectives are to examine the process of "consolidation" in memory, where immediate sparse memories for specific events or sequences are integrated over time into more complete recollections. The studies will assess...
This $213,467 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research on how infants learn language by studying their interactions with caregivers. The project consists of two related studies: 1) recording speech and eye movements of infants playing with toys to understand when speech is interpretable to them, and 2) creating and annotating a large corpus of everyday spoken language to estimate...
This $146,005 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will support research to examine how family stress and cohesion relate to a young child's language environment and language acquisition. The project consists of two studies: a secondary analysis of existing data from 100 families with 3- to 5-year-old children, and an intensive longitudinal study with natural home observations of 50...
The National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $258,811 Project Grant to the California State University, East Bay Foundation, Inc. to support the study of neuroplasticity of language and cognitive processes in bilingualism and multilingualism. Funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the award will provide funding from September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024 for the acquisition of electroencephalography...
This $600,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (formerly known as Education and Human Resources, CFDA 47.076) will fund research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison to uncover cognitive and neural fingerprints that make individuals unique. Over three years, the researchers will develop new computational algorithms to identify commonalities and differences in how mental representations and neural underpinnings are structured across individuals. They...
