Direct linkRhodes, Marjorie; Rizzo, Michael T.; Foster-Hanson, Emily; Moty, Kelsey; Leshin, Rachel A.; Wang, Michelle; Benitez, Josie; Ocampo, John Daryl – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2020
This article introduces an accessible approach to implementing unmoderated remote research in developmental science -- research in which children and families participate in studies remotely and independently, without directly interacting with researchers. Unmoderated remote research has the potential to strengthen developmental science by: (1)…

With a long-term aim of empowering researchers everywhere to contribute to work on language development, we organized the First Truly Global /L+/ International Summer/Winter School on Language Acquisition, a free 5-day virtual school for early career researchers. In this paper, we describe the school, our experience organizing it, and lessons…

Nguyen, Kim V.; Tansan, Merve; Newcombe, Nora S. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2023
Research on spatial navigation is essential to understanding how mobile species adapt to their environments. Such research increasingly uses virtual environments (VEs) because, although VE has drawbacks, it allows for standardization of procedures, precision in measuring behaviors, ease in introducing variation, and cross-investigator…

Rowley, Stephanie J.; Camacho, Tissyana C. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2015
The current article discusses the importance of increasing racial-ethnic and socioeconomic diversity in cognitive developmental research. It begins with discussion of the implications of the underrepresentation of ethnic minority children in cognitive developmental research. It goes on to suggest reasons underlying these omissions, such as the…

Graham, Susan A.; Madigan, Sheri – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2016
The articles in this special issue of the "Journal of Cognition and Development" examine the cognitive development of children who are following typical and atypical developmental pathways. The articles offer a mixture of theory-based considerations, reviews of the literature, and new empirical data addressing fundamental aspects of…

Feng, Gary – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2011
Eye tracking offers a powerful research tool for developmental scientists. In this brief article, the author introduces the methodology and issues associated with its applications in developmental research, beginning with an overview of eye movements and eye-tracking technologies, followed by examples of how it is used to study the developing mind…

Alibali, Martha W.; Nathan, Mitchell J. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2010
Cognitive development unfolds in many contexts, and one of the most important of these contexts is school. Thus, understanding the school context is critical for understanding development. This article discusses some of the reasons why cognitive developmental researchers might wish to conduct research in schools, describes how to get started…

Greenhoot, Andrea Follmer; Dowsett, Chantelle J. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2012
Existing data sets can be an efficient, powerful, and readily available resource for addressing questions about developmental science. Many of the available databases contain hundreds of variables of interest to developmental psychologists, track participants longitudinally, and have representative samples. In this article, the authors discuss the…

Rhemtulla, Mijke; Little, Todd D. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2012
Data collection can be the most time- and cost-intensive part of developmental research. This article describes some long-proposed but little-used research designs that have the potential to maximize data quality (reliability and validity) while minimizing research cost. In "planned missing data designs", missing data are used…

Gauvain, Mary; Beebe, Heidi; Zhao, Shuheng – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2011
Cognitive development is a cultural process. More experienced cultural members and the practices, institutions, and artifacts of the culture provide support and guidance for children as they develop knowledge and thinking skills. In this article, the authors describe the value that is added to our understanding of cognitive development when…
