A lovely surprise from the lab! It's a beautifully woven quilt that shows our key ideas and stimuli from many experiments over the past 5 years ... who can ask for a better lab, better students, and a better way to remember our studies?! <3

So happy to finally share this preprint! It includes our initial findings (out as a cogsci paper) and several follow-up experiments. The results demonstrate the power of learning from minimal statistical evidence, applied to inferences about the informativeness of praise!

New preprint with @JessaStegall, Emily Hembacher, @mcxfrank, and @hyogweon: Young children infer the informativeness of others' praise.

Adults give children a lot of praise, but do children always trust it?
