Past Studies

Friendship Study:

Does your family identify as Mexican or Mexican-American? Do you have a 4-6 year old Spanish-speaking child? If so, we invite you to participate in the Friendship Study! In this 30 minute in-person study, we hope to learn what children find most important when forming friendships with other Spanish-speaking children.


Word Learning Study:

Is your baby between 18-36 months? Please sign up to participate in our fully online study! Your participation will include a 15 minute Zoom session with a researcher and filling out a 15 minute questionnaire. In this study, we want to know the abilities that help young children learn new words.


Mask Wearing Study (Complete):

Are you curious to see how the mask mandate played a role in your 4-10 year old child’s perceptions? We’re currently analyzing data and can’t wait to share our results with you soon!
