Centre for Developmental Psychology
The Centre for Developmental Psychology aims to facilitate basic and applied research on both social and cognitive development with infants, children, and adolescents, as well as adults. The Centre houses separate spaces for testing and observations, specially designed to be child-friendly. A pleasant play environment invites children to explore and gives parents a relaxing atmosphere in which everyone can feel comfortable. This, combined with sophisticated observational and recording equipment, offers researchers an ideal place in which to carry out a variety of developmental research studies.
