The Social and Moral Development Lab is recruiting Research Assistants to work on several exciting projects that involve research with children and adolescents. We study the origins of prejudice, stereotypes, and bias in childhood. We also examine children’s emerging concerns with fairness, equality, and rights. Summer internships are 10-15 hours/week for 10 weeks. Fall internships are 10 hours/week for credit or volunteer.

We are investigating how children and adolescents make decisions about friendships, inclusion and exclusion in peer groups, the allocation of resources, and the attributions of intentions.
