Research Interests: social and cognitive factors of bilingual language development, word learning, preschool-aged children, non-native language exposure, development of metalinguistic skills
More recent curiosities, often led by my student-researchers: implicit biases in college-course evaluations (e.g., how might instructor's attire or use of slang impact course ratings?). How do parenting styles impact children's autonomy?
What's new?
Dr. Nicole Wen (Brunel University in London) and I will be leading a roundtable event(Teaching in Tandem: Enhancing Developmental Psychology Through Co-Instruction) at the Teaching Pre-conference, on April 30, for SRCD 2025:. We look forward to seeing you there!
Undergraduate MSMU researcher, Elizabeth (Eli) Arroyo, will be presenting preliminary findings of our "Grandparent's parenting style" project (an assessment of self-identified Gentle Parents' own childhoods) at WPA 2025. See you there!
Thank you to Drs. Jen Clegg, Katie Warnell (both at Texas State University in San Marcos), for facilitating the "Developmental Science at Non-R1 Institutions: Collaborative Strategies for Success" workshop at CDS 2024 . I co-led a successful round table discussion about balancing faculty responsibilities at non-R1 institutions and learned so much from fellow attendees!
