- Reposted by Stefanie HoehlWe are advertising **11 new PhD positions** in the second cohort of our RTG on Curiosity (details on all 11 positions here: www.uni-goettingen.de/de/open+posi...). One of these positions is in my group looking at the role of curiosity in early word learning (www.uni-goettingen.de/en/644546.ht...)
- 🥳 So pleased to share our new publication: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... The whole @kinderstudien.bsky.social lab got together to do a little scientific retreat last year and this is the result - a truly developmental perspective on the phenomenon of interpersonal neural synchrony 🧠🧠 👨🍼👩🍼
- We provide an overview of hyperscanning studies with infants & children and note that interpersonal neural synchrony (INS) emerges as early as four months of age. We discuss its prerequisites and formulate developmental hypotheses, e.g. that it may initially be constrained to low frequencies.
- We discuss the links between INS and socio-cognitive functions & outcomes, e.g., social learning, language, and attachment. We contend that INS fosters mutual predictability and co-regulation in caregiver-child interactions. Yet, longitudinal research is required to substantiate mechanistic claims.
- Thanks to the whole team for the wonderful collaboration and thanks to @fwf-at.bsky.social for funding our work @univie.ac.at 🤗
