Welcome to Maxime, Hannah, and Hanyu!

Maxime is investigating how trust influences self-esteem, well-being, and mental health. While Hannah and Hanyu are collaborating on research examining the relationship between controllability, subjective control beliefs, mental health, and coping behaviours.

We’re excited to have them in the lab and look forward to their contributions!

Milestone from the ORA project!

Read our registered report on the structure and ontogenetic growth of prosociality from early to middle childhood.

Hurrah! Our paper on training cognitive control is finally out in Nature Neuroscience.

This amazing team effort that took place over 7 years finds that training cognitive control in children doesn’t lead to any meaningful changes in their brains or their behavior. Read all about it here in the full paper or here in the Research Briefing.

Welcome to Ellie!

Ellie is joining the lab as a postdoctoral researcher and will be looking at cross-sectional and longitudinal changes in executive functions and prosocial behavior.

Excited to have had our first in-person meeting of our ORA project on prosocial development in Munich!
