CoCoDev Lab- the other being the Child Cognition Lab). He was a gorgeous 2 year old Australian Shepherd - incredibly well behaved and a very willing participant. We were able to try out a few different tasks with him which was extremely informative and highlighted areas where we need to iron out some creases in our apparatus and methodology. A big thank you to his owners for bringing him in and being so patient! Today we had our first pilot subject into the Canine Cognition Lab (one part of Daphna's We also had a couple of participants into the Child Lab to participate in our toddler causal imitation study - early indications suggest that there might be a big difference between 18-month-olds and 2-year olds... watch this space! |

I'm delighted that our abstract on probabilistic reasoning in capuchin monkeys has been accepted as a talk for the Cognitive Development Society 2015 Biennial Meeting! I will be talking about the ability of capuchin monkeys to make inferences about single-item samples drawn from populations consisting of a mixture of preferred and non-preferred items - a study that we conducted at Living Links, Edinburgh Zoo, UK. It will be my first time attending this conference as well as my first visit to Ohio... I look forward to meeting some new people and hearing about lots of exciting cognitive development research.
