Linda Smith, one of the scientists I most admire, writes in Nature "News and Views" about @wkvong 's work. Linda's conjecture: "problems of data-greedy AI could be mitigated by determining and then exploiting the natural statistics of infant experience" https://t.co/nh2wbntqG6
excited to share that our (@UOLearningLab and Kellan Kadooka) paper on 10-13 month olds' everyday body position, restraint, and object holding (measured via EMA) was accepted in developmental psych. https://t.co/2iZzNtX8fF
👍"Future research could test these predictions by performing longitudinal measurements of children’s visual diet (eg, w/ a head-mounted camera) & cortical representations (eg, w/ fMRI) to directly evaluate the relationship between neural changes and the visual environment"
really excited to share this paper from my lab—we demonstrated that infants' body position can be classified with high accuracy in real, at-home behavior (to appear in Behavior Research Methods): https://t.co/lBplN8Fecc
Excited to share our new preprint with @XiaoqianYan, @sarah_shi_tung, @BellaFascendini, @amnorcia - We discovered a staggered development of visual category representations in infants during the first year of life.

important: “...pitting the effects of massed learning opportunities vs spaced learning opportunities, as is common in experimental studies, may not align well w/ real world experiences as children’s language learning environments contain a combination of BOTH types of timing...”

Are you teaching a course in phonetics or phonology this semester/quarter? Would you like your students to get some hands-on experience with linguistic research? Help us annotate [thousands of!] vocalizations from babies all over the world! https://t.co/CC5Rtp8f1w
so excited to be pursuing discoveries about the pitch & tempo patterns that infants encounter across repeated tunes in their everyday lives (Mendoza Music corpus!), in collab led by @haleykrag@lkcirelli
Great talk by @haleykrag discussing the “Pitches and Tempos Across Repeated Tunes in Infants’ Everyday Lives” and reflecting on the differences in results seen in lab and in the home! 🎶 #SMPC2022
Excited about the #SMPC2022 panel: "How can #musicscience be more socially just?" Fri Aug 5, 11-12pm PST Queen Marie Blrm.
Featuring @Mike_Eagle, Jennifer Mendoza, and Juan Eduardo Wolf (moderator @DV_PhD).
Thanks to our Anti-Racism and Equity committee for organizing!!
Do you want your academic organization held accountable for promoting access? Do you want to protect high-risk people while we're in (multiple) pandemics? Send your academic organization an email demanding online, virtual, remote access for future conferences. 1/7
if you were at #ICIS2022 and missed our talk (w/ @UOLearningLab) on infants' everyday body position and manual behavior, i shared a summary and the slides https://t.co/ZSi7gDgr2s. stay tuned for more EMA results!
Call for Editorial Fellows at Developmental Psychology.
