Psychology

Psychology
The GC&SU Infant Cognition Lab (iLab) is now recruiting 12-month-old infants. We are studying whether or not infants can mentally rotate objects. The procedure is simple: infants seated in a highchair facing a television will view a series of photographs of women’s faces. A parent will complete a brief questionnaire. The entire study takes less than 25 minutes, and a parent is with his/her infant at all times. Infants will receive a unique free t-shirt for participating. Call Myrna at the GC&SU Department of Psychology at 445-4574 if you are interested in participating.
