This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Postdoctoral Research Fellowship award in the amount of $160,000 supports a two-year research project examining how children aged 7-12 understand and trust the capabilities of generative AI chatbots. The research involves a mixed-methods study across two phases - an initial experiment to assess children's trust in AI vs. human-provided information and their ability to identify common AI chatbot errors,...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $160,000 supports an early career scientist's postdoctoral research fellowship under the sponsorship of Dr. Marjorie Rhodes at New York University. The research project aims to investigate how children develop stereotypes about social groups, such as racial and gender groups, and explore methods to prevent such stereotype development. Specifically, the project examines whether...
This $160,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a postdoctoral fellowship to investigate how children develop communicative competence through peer interactions. The key objectives are to collect and analyze a large dataset of child-child conversations, develop computational models comparing communicative acts across adult-adult, parent-child, and child-child contexts, and conduct...
This $276,000 two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences program will support computational and developmental research into children's self-representations and learning decisions. Specifically, the awardee will build a quantitative computational model integrating children's self-observations and social feedback to explain self-concept development. This model will be tested against adult data and developmental findings. It will also be...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports research on the cultural contexts and developmental outcomes of childhood exploration and interactions with nature. The $142,165 award, effective September 1, 2024 through August 31, 2026, will examine children's independent exploration and time spent in different environments (e.g., green spaces versus playgrounds) across two societies where such...
This $160,000 Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) to support a postdoctoral fellowship investigating the neural basis of social influence perception. Under the sponsorship of Drs. Shari Liu, Marina Bedny, and Tianmin Shu at Johns Hopkins University, the fellowship supports an early-career scientist who will use behavioral and neuroimaging methods to examine how the brain processes information about physical...
The National Science Foundation SBE Office of Multidisciplinary Activities awarded a $138,000 project grant to Chestnut Hill, Newton, MA to develop an understanding of children's punishment behavior across social and motivational contexts from December 2021 through November 2023. This award falls under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which aims to promote basic research and education in the social, behavioral and economic sciences. Specifically, the grant...
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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowships (SPRF) Program award of $160,000 supports a 2-year postdoctoral research project investigating how mothers facilitate their infants' access to the environment as their motor skills develop. The research will assess mothers' beliefs about their infants' abilities, characterize mothers' support behaviors, and identify profiles of maternal support that enable infant exploration. The...
This two-year, $138,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program will fund research into the development of social cognition in children. Specifically, the grant supports an early career scientist to conduct a large-scale investigation examining how children's understanding of other minds emerges throughout the preschool years. Leveraging recent advances in online developmental science, the fellow will validate an updated mental state...
