The Infant and Child Cognition Lab is a brand new lab situated in the Psychology Department at Boston College, headed by Dr. Sara Cordes. Research in the lab focuses on understanding how infants, children, and adults keep track of number and other quantities. Using simple looking time procedures with 6-18 month old infants and computer games and other simple tasks with children and adults, we are interested in the development of number concepts, investigating how early abilities translate to later verbal counting and mathematics achievement.
