Welcome to Harvard University's Laboratory for Developmental Studies, where we investigate how infants and children perceive and reason about the world around them. Our studies are supported by funds from the National Science Foundation and the National Institute of Child Health and Development, and they explore such topics as how infants perceive partly hidden objects, how children learn words for new objects, and how infants and children understand number. We have found that babies and young children may know a lot more than people used to believe. If you have other children who would like to come along, we provide toys and baby-sitters for them as well. Although many families choose to come in several times to participate in different studies, participation in one study requires just one visit and does not commit you to any other visits. Each study takes about 15 minutes, but parents should plan on a thirty-minute visit so that we have time to explain the study completely and discuss its findings with you. As a thank you for your participation in our study we offer a gift for your child and a $5 reimbursement for your travel expenses.
