Welcome to the CHILD Lab!
At the University of Southern California’s Child Learning and Development (CHILD) Lab, we look at the ways language and cognition interact in infants, children, adolescents, and adults. Our goal is to piece apart the mechanisms children and adults use process words and better understand word learning as a whole. Check out our RESEARCH section to find out more information on related and upcoming studies as part of the lab.
Want to participate in a study? Check out our PARTICIPATE section to learn more about how you and your child can be part of some truly incredible research work. We offer both in-person and online research opportunities for children. If you’re not in the Los Angeles area and want to contribute to better understand language processing, we have online studies you can participate in!
