Study on Lay Perceptions of Mental Control

Why do liberals and conservatives disagree so much about social justice? We study the possibility that they differ in how capable they think people are in controlling their own thoughts and emotions. For example, if someone is offended by micro aggressions, liberals might say we need policy to protect them, while conservatives would say it's their responsibility to not be offended. These different approaches may stem from a more basic difference in perceptions of the offended person's ability to control or suppress their thoughts.

Infant and Toddler Childcare Teachers' Attitudes and Beliefs Towards Responsive Feeding Study

The purpose of this research study is to determine the attitudes and belief of infant-toddler teachers in childcare centers towards responsive feeding style. The first 2 years of life are a critical window of childhood growth and development. Yet, 8.1% of US children age 2 years or under are at risk for obesity and adverse health outcomes. Childcare centers are important settings to promote children's healthy nutrition and development. A large number of US children attend organized childcare programs and receive nutrition there. Gaining a better understanding of teachers' thoughts and experiences with feeding very young children can allow for more tailored guidance and programs for childcare providers to support age-appropriate feeding.
