- This Project Grant, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075), will address two key research questions: (1) whether infants' motor skill acquisitions are related to the specific words they learn, and (2) whether language input that aligns with infants' motor actions facilitates word learning. The $380,398 award, effective August 1, 2024 and running through July 31, 2028, will support the University of Alabama's efforts...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering Research Initiation (ERI) project grant, under CFDA 47.041, is awarded for $200,000 to the University of the Pacific to develop a novel wearable sensing and analysis system for early detection of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in young children and toddlers. The research aims to leverage non-invasive wearable devices to collect physiological and environmental data, and then use machine learning to identify physiological biomarkers and early...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $365,000 to Michigan State University to conduct collaborative research that aims to understand the role of language in the development of spatial thinking and learning in young children. The project uses sensor-enabled "smart" building blocks and AI tools to analyze the physical block-building sequences and parent-child conversations during...
- 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...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $138,337 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. (UGA Research Foundation) to study the temporal structure of infants' everyday behaviors, including language and play interactions in the home environment. The project aims to investigate how the temporal patterns of infant vocalizations, maternal speech, and infant object play relate to the...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Information and Intelligent Systems award provides $600,000 over 3 years (8/1/2023 - 7/31/2026) to Michigan State University to develop an assistive technology framework for improving social skills interventions for children with autism and other developmental disabilities in classroom settings. The key products to be developed include a wearable human interaction tracker (WHET) tag that can quantitatively measure and track interactions...
