In the Infant and Child lab, we are interested in attention, temperament, and play styles of children from 4 months through 6 years. In our playrooms, children are observed as they enjoy our toys. In longitudinal studies, children return at various ages; we are interested in how infants’ interests predict later play styles.
Students who wish to become research assistants may enroll in Individual Study or Lab Learning. Students are welcome to participate for 2 or 3 (or more) semesters, perhaps eventually completing an Honors Thesis.
Please contact Dr. Betsy Ruddy at (609) 771-2630 or by email at ruddy@tcnj.edu if you know of any children who might like to play at the college, or if you would like more information about Infant and Child Studies.
