We have several studies for both infants and children online — accessible by appointment on Zoom and at any time on Lookit. All you need is a computer and a webcam!
Please see below for all of our active online studies. We’re frequently adding new studies for 4-month-olds to 5-year-olds, so check back often and send us your contact information using the form above. We’ll get in touch as soon as there’s a study for your child’s age range!
We have also resumed in-person studies at our lab on NYU’s main campus near Washington Square Park! Click here to learn more about and participate in our lab’s in-person studies.
