Welcome to Duke CHILD Studies!

We are a team of scientists who discover fascinating things about how children think and grow. We are interested in things like how children form beliefs about the world, think about others, become moral beings, and learn at such fast rates.

We are made of four developmental psychology research labs.

We welcome families who would like to participate!

We frequently offer both in-person and online study opportunities for children aged 6 months to 14 years old.

If you’re interested in participating, you can sign up here!
