À propos
My research aims to understand what is unique about human social cognition. Specifically, over the past years my research has focused on young children's ability to rapidly and accurately learn from others and how these skills compare to those of others animals (e.g., great apes). More recently, my colleagues and I have sought to characterize the development of social learning in preschoolers (when children go from being low to high-fidelity imitators) and the cognitive mechanisms supporting these changes.
