MB3: Rule Learning

Our data collection deadline of March 31 is almost here! Let us know if you have any questions relating to data submission. The analysis team is working hard to finalize the pipeline so we can share results as soon as possible after the data are in!

MB3L: Longitudinal language follow-up
The preregistration is submitted and we are preparing for data collection. If your lab has already collected data for MB3 it can be easy to participate in MB3L by collecting follow-up CDI data! If you are interested, email Anna Exner.

MB4: Social Evaluation

The analysis and writing teams are working hard to finish the Stage 2 Registered Report. A full draft of the Registered Report will be sent to the broader MB4 team in the coming weeks. Contact Kelsey Lucca and Francis Yuen with questions. Coding for spin-off projects is ongoing!

MB5: Hunter & Ames Model of Infant Attention

The Stage 1 Registered Report has officially been given an 'In Principle Acceptance' at Nature Human Behavior! (read the preprint)
There is still ongoing work related to finalizing stimuli, documentation, and experimental programs in preparation for piloting. Stay tuned for next steps!
