25.01.2022 On Wednesday the 27th of September many of our ECDC families attended the ARC Centre of Excellence for the Dynamics of Language annual showcase. The day was filled with interactive demonstrations of social robots and new research technologies. On this day, our PhD student Kristyn Hensby, along with the entire UQ social robotics team, introduced three of the Opie robots which our ECDC families helped us to build through their participation in many of our robot studies. We wo...uld like to extend a thanks to all those who attended the day, and more so every child and family who has ever met our Opie robots. Without you our research and robot would not be as amazing as it is. The ECDC families have been pivotal in creating safe and friendly social robots for children. Thank you and check out the debrief for the entire day if you missed it in the link below!

25.01.2022 Dear Parents! We would like to invite you to take part in a survey with the University of Oxford. This research began at UQ and is continuing abroad. We would like to ask you and your child questions on their developing beliefs in natural, supernatural, and fictional figures. If you are interested and would like to participate at a time convenient to you - it should take only about 15 minutes - please follow the links: By participating, you will go into the running for one of... 4 x $50 Amazon vouchers. For children aged 3 - 5 click here: https://bit.ly/2OtOyva For children aged 6 - 8 click here: https://bit.ly/2Os5Ngh For children aged 8 - 12 click here: https://bit.ly/2viiaTr The task is quite straight-forward we would like you to ask them about their beliefs in things like Ghosts, Dinosaurs, and Aliens, as well as other familiar figures like Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy. We are interested in understanding how children come to understand the world, and those things within it, in an adult-like way. Prior to the survey beginning, you will consent to which figures you are comfortable asking your child about if you do not wish to ask your child about Santa (for example) you do not have to. If you would like more information please contact Dr. Rohan Kapitany at School of Anthropology and Museum Ethnography on [email protected] (This is a collaboration between researchers at The University of Queensland, the University of Oxford, and George Mason University). Thank you very much for your time :)

25.01.2022 Pointing and Success Age: 2 year olds (23- to 25-months-old) Sarah is interested in childrens self-indicating behaviours, like pointing or marking actions, and their relation to object permanence tasks. Specifically, whether children are able to help themselves remember the location of a hidden object, and how this relates to success rates on object permanence tasks involving a delay. Participation involves a 30-minute session at The University of Queensland. Your child wi...ll be presented with a row of boxes and stickers will be hidden under them. One hide-and-seek like game will also be played.

24.01.2022 Would you like to help us investigate how infants learn to count? Age Range: 15 to 17-month old infants To participate email: [email protected]... Before they can count on their own, children recognise when someone makes an error while they are counting. In the ECDC, we recently discovered that this early understanding of counting is associated with exposure to counting. Now, we aim to discover whether exposure to various counting activities, impacts on 18 month olds understanding of counting. We seek parents of 15 to 17-month-old infants to take part in a training study. You will receive a counting book to participate in a 4-week reading challenge at home. After that, we will invite you and your child to visit the ECDC at the University of Queensland, St Lucia campus, for a single 30-minute testing session. This study is a first step in evaluating the effects of various counting activities on infants early number concepts. The findings may ultimately inform novel techniques for enhancing numeracy development. Participation will have the immediate benefit of providing your child with counting practice in a shared reading context.

24.01.2022 Making Choices about Rewards Ages: 4.5 years old To participate: [email protected] Brooke is interested in how children make decisions between small, immediate rewards and larger, delayed rewards. Being flexible about which rewards are 'worth it' is an important skill that lets us seize immediate opportunities or pursue future goals depending on which is best suited to our situation. Understanding how this skill develops in children needs research.... Participation involves a 30-minute session at the ECDC labs. Your child will be presented with choice between games that differ in quantity, probability of obtaining and time-delay of receiving the rewards. If you are interested in participating, please sign up here https://uqpsych.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cwFFghXISxBhRuR or contact Brooke on [email protected]

18.01.2022 Last week, Matti Wilks, a PhD student here at the ECDC was involved in an SBS documentary The Truth About Racism, looking at what characterises racial bias. In her segment, Matti worked with 5-9 year olds looking at measures of inter-group bias. You can view a short clip of Matti in action here: http://bit.ly/2n8pNpA. The full documentary is available on SBS On Demand which you can find here: http://bit.ly/2mdcWTL. In her PhD research Matti examines how 6-8 year old childr...en judge the moral and immoral behaviour of others. She is especially interested in how this changes as a result of whether those people are in-group members and out-group members. Her research has found that children care about morality when making social judgements (how much they like the individuals) but not when making learning judgements (who they want to copy). If youre interested in being involved, please contact Matti at [email protected].

18.01.2022 Come find us out at the Queensland Museums Discovery Day for Little Learners as part of National Science Week. We will be runnning some of our research so come down and see science in action with your little ones!

17.01.2022 Parents the world over are fascinated by their newborns ability to imitate. But, is this ability an illusion? Recently, ECDC founder Professor Virginia Slaught...er spoke with the DeLTA Centre at the University of Iowa about our lab's neonatal imitation research. Virginia, talks with DeLTA about the long-simmering controversy over whether babies can or cannot imitate their parents and what it tells us about science, scientists, and ourselves. It's exciting that there is such interest in this work especially consider so many of our ECDC families participated in this research. You can hear all about it on iTunes or directly through the DeLTA Center website (http://ow.ly/Grz6303wGm7)

17.01.2022 We had such a great time meeting you all at the PBC expo last month. A huge thank you to all the new parents who signed up, we are looking forward to seeing you in the labs very soon. All the best, the ECDC team.

15.01.2022 "Would you like to help us investigate how children share? Age Range: 48 to 60 month old (4-5 years old) children To participate email: [email protected], [email protected]... Children are capable of sharing with a puppet in distress, however this occurs less frequently when doing so incurs a personal cost. Within this study, we aim to investigate what variables inhibit or promote sharing with a distressed agent; either a puppet or an adult. We are interested in 40-60 month old children to partake in the study at the ECDC lab at the University of Queensland St. Lucia campus. The study takes approximately 15-20 minutes to complete. Following completion, your child will receive a certificate of research participation from the university, in addition to a complimentary gift. Your childs participation in this study will help us track the development of compassionate behaviour, such as sharing, in young children. Additionally, your childs participation will also help us understand how to better promote compassionate behaviour." Thank you! Chloe McNally & Brittany Powell UQ School of Psychology Researchers

15.01.2022 YOUR CHILD MAY BE MORE INNOVATIVE THAN YOU REALISE Children may have a greater understanding of how to innovate and problem solve than previously realised. A study led by University of Queensland School of Psychology researcher Karri Neldner looked at childrens ability to innovate with tools, and the creativity associated with developing new tools to solve problems.... Kids, aged three to five, had a greater understanding of how to use novel items to solve problems than was previously thought possible, Ms Neldner said. Children were given a choice of a pipe cleaner or a short length of rope to use to retrieve a small toy bucket from the bottom of a transparent tube. Over 45 per cent of the kids were able to solve the task by using the pipe cleaner, compared to rates of below 10 per cent in previous research, Ms Neldner said. Childrens innovation rates more than doubled when they were given clear information about the tool's properties. Seeing the focal component of the tool that the end of a pipe cleaner can be bent into a hook, for instance kick starts the problem-solving process and allows a lot more children to identify how they can go about solving the task. This suggests that we need to rethink how we test innovation in children, as the tasks we've been giving to them up until now are unnecessarily difficult, and disadvantaging their performance. The study found that childrens ability to innovate spanned across cultures. Study participants were urban Brisbane kids, the majority of which were Caucasian and from middle-class socioeconomic backgrounds, as well as Indigenous residents of the Borroloola and Robinson River Aboriginal communities in Northern Australia. Ms Neldners research, conducted in collaboration with Associate Professors Ilana Mushin and Mark Nielsen, is published in Cognition.

14.01.2022 We couldnt be more proud of our very own ECDC researcher Karri Neldner (https://ecdc.psychology.uq.edu.au/profile/127/karri) who has won herself the UQs prestigious Fulbright Scholarship allowing her to travel to the University of Texas where she will examine chimpanzees the closest living relative of humans to better understand the evolutionary history of tool-making and innovation. We wish to thank all parents whose children participated in Karris "Tool Innovation" study for contributing towards this outstanding achievement.

10.01.2022 Preparing for the Immediate Future Ages: 2, 3 and 4 year olds (+/- 2 months from birthday) To participate: [email protected] Jess is interested in when children develop the ability to think about the future and prepare for future uncertainty. Though it may sound like fortune-telling, as adults we actually do this every day from taking a packed lunch in case we get hungry, to keeping a fire-extinguisher beside the oven. We are able to foresee potential f...uture events and prepare accordingly. We can even prepare for mutually exclusive future events like taking our sunglasses but bringing an umbrella as well in case it rains. Parents often take similar measures for their children but still relatively little is known about when children actually develop the ability to do this for themselves. Participation involves one 30-40 minute session at the ECDC labs. If you are interested in participating, please contact Jess at [email protected]

09.01.2022 We invite 7- to 12-year-olds to participate in an online interactive study looking at childrens ability to put themselves in different peoples shoes! This study will consist of several game-like tasks administered online. In the first task, your child will be asked to watch videos of a series of brief stories and will be asked questions about what the characters were thinking or doing in each story. Your child will then be presented a map of a hypothetical town where they l...ive, hear their hypothetical new neighbours utter simple sentences (e.g., Hello! How are you today?), and will be asked questions about the new neighbours and to choose where they want them to live. Given the current COVID-19 pandemic, participation involves a 40-minute session over Zoom. The results of this research will shed light on how children begin to assign group membership and how this may influence their ability to take other peoples perspectives. If you are interested in participating, please fill in the consent form via this link https://uqpsych.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0vaol6j1puKrsTr with the following information...

07.01.2022 * Seeking Bilingual & Multilingual Infants for study on Pattern Recognition* Age Range: 16 to 20 month old infants To participate: Register your interest at http://bit.ly/2tpWUw1 Jon is interested in whether or not infants recognise when someone makes an error while counting or repeating letters (i.e., when the count words/letters are mixed up). For this study, your infant will play a Magic Buttons Game where he or she will sit next to a TV screen and two buttons. He or s...he will be given the chance to press the buttons, which show either a correct or incorrect counting or alphabetical sequence. At the moment, we are specifically interested in how children who hear more than one language perform on this task. Bilingual children may develop an earlier understanding of counting and other patterns than monolingual children, because they are typically exposed to these patterns in more than one language. Participation in this study will take about 20 minutes or less at the University of Queensland's St Lucia campus. Participation is entirely voluntary and you are free to withdraw your child at any time. You are welcome to stay with your child throughout the study.

07.01.2022 Parents, this is a study you and your child can do at home! Age: 10-16 years old To participate: https://uqpsych.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_3ekbzox5TvIdRRj We are looking for children aged 10-16 years to complete a 7 minute online study looking at how children think about facial characteristics. ...

06.01.2022 Last Monday, our PhD students Matti Wilks, Kristyn Hensby and Frankie Fong attended the "International Science of Learning Conference" at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre, South Brisbane. They had the opportunity to present their current projects on young children's social learning. Matti gave a talk on a cross-cultural study led by Associate Professor Mark Nielsen, while Kristyn and Frankie took part in poster presentations showcasing their recent works investigating children's social learning from digital screens and robots. They also had a chance to meet and engage in fruitful conversation with Professor Andrew Meltzoff from the University of Washington.

06.01.2022 *Seeking participants for a study on how children with Autism Spectrum Disorder prepare for uncertain future events* Age: 3-10 year olds, diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder To Participate: Register your details at http://bit.ly/2rkwRGw or email [email protected] Jennie is interested in childrens ability to plan for the future. In her current study she is examining how children with autism prepare for two uncertain future events.... Participation in this study will take 30 minutes or less and will take place at The University of Queensland, St Lucia. Your child will play a series of games, including a fun ball-catching game and some games with puppets. The ability to plan for the future is not something we are born with. We are interested in how children with Autism Spectrum Disorder imagine and prepare for two versions of an uncertain future event. Difficulties with this ability could explain, for instance, why children with autism often struggle on complex planning tasks, or with adjusting their established behavioural routines. If you are interested in participating, please contact Jennie at [email protected] or register your details at http://bit.ly/2rkwRGw

04.01.2022 Ages: 4 to 8 year olds (born between June and October 2008-2012) To participate: [email protected] Jess is investigating the development of childrens ability to foresee potential mishaps and adjust their behaviour to avoid them. For children, pausing their fun to ask themselves What could possibly go wrong? is often difficult, and their failure to think through the possible consequences can result in a cry over spilt milk or even a trip to the emergency room. The c...urrent study aims to help us better understand when they begin to develop the capacity to recognise and then avoid future mishaps. Participation in this study runs for one 1 hour session at the University of Queensland, where children are asked to paint a picture, watch a few short videos and finally, play some card and number games. If you are interested in participating, please contact Jess at [email protected]

03.01.2022 Using Language to Learn New Information Ages: 3-5 years old To participate: [email protected] We use language to gather information so we can learn and understand concepts we have never encountered before. This study is designed to investigate childrens use of language to reason about the purpose of unfamiliar objects. ... Participation involves a 20-minute visit at the ECDC. We will introduce your child to the names and functions of unfamiliar objects and give them an opportunity to play with new objects that have the same or different names. We will also play a memory game and some simple decision-making games. If you are interested in participating, please contact Rachel on [email protected]

02.01.2022 Age: 6 month olds To participate: contact Siobhan at [email protected] Although we may not be aware of it, we all have a tendency to be biased towards members of our own group/s (e.g., sporting teams, work organizations, age group, gender, and ethnicity). It is well established that children, like adults, also show these biases, but there have been few attempts to explore potential biases involving infants. ... The aim of our research is to investigate whether 6-month old infants show evidence for biases towards people who look similar or different to them. The study involves a single visit to UQ and participating in a short 20 minute task. If you are interested please contact Siobhan at [email protected].

01.01.2022 Family Impact of COVID-19 Study We are seeking parents with children aged between 4-7 years to take part in our international online survey. If you would like to participate, please click here: https://uqpsych.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4UAaXgxCjgeIMIZ. Thank you!... Dear Parents / Caregivers, The ECDC in collaboration with the University of Cambridge Centre for Family Research, UK are looking for parents/caregivers with children aged between 4 and 7 years to participate in an international survey, aimed at documenting links between family and community factors and the pandemic experiences of families with young children. This survey includes questions about family wellbeing, home learning and childrens contact with screens and nature. We are hopeful that the results of this survey will help policymakers understand the impact of coronavirus quarantine measures on families with young children. Through UKs collaborative links, they will be recruiting not only in the UK but also in Italy, Sweden, China, Australia, New Zealand, the USA and Canada (and possibly beyond). If you are eligible to take part in this 20-minute survey, you can help provide the evidence base needed to guide effective educational and health policies aimed at young children and their families. Thank you so much for your support and stay safe!
