In this study, we examine how children make inferences about new people they meet and what information sources they use (for example, the characteristics of the group to which the person belongs, or the words said about the person). In our study, we display children some stories and ask them what they think about the characters in the stories.
In this study, we aim to examine how children and adults expect moral and conventional norm transgressors to feel. In another part of the study, we investigate children and adults’ judgments about moral and conventional norm violations with regard to how wrong and how shameful they are.
In this study, we investigate what children think about how other children have learned different knowledge types. We aim to see similar and different attitudes towards in-group and out-group children regarding the sources of knowledge and learning styles.
In this study, we investigate children's selective trust in the information given by people speaking with different accents. We ask children whether they trust in statements made by people speaking with different accents about improbable (e.g., someone riding a zebra) or impossible (e.g., someone riding a fly) events.
