UNLV Language Development Lab

We are looking for typically developing 2 to 13 month old babies to study language development! If you have a little scientist in these age ranges, please contact us to sign up to participate at the UNLV Language Development Lab and help us learn how your child understands, produces and learns language!

Participation involves a visit to our lab on the UNLV Maryland Campus and typically lasts less than 30 minutes. During the session, you will be with your child the whole time as your child scientist plays with toys, looks at pictures or books or watches a short video. We have both weekday and weekend appointments available and provide free parking and childcare for any siblings who wish to tag along. As a participation gift, your child will receive a Child Scientist degree, toy or book of choice and $10 as a token of appreciation.

To schedule a time for you and your child to join in the science fun, chat with us on Facebook, give us a call at 702-895-0203 or email us at [email protected]. Feel free to call us or email us with any questions!

Please share with families who might be interested!

The UNLV Language Development Lab is conducting research studies, studying language and cognition in infant and child development. We are looking for new participants, aged 5-15 months, to join in contributing to science!

Studies typically take less than 30 minutes. During infant studies, we will videotape your baby as he/she sits on your lab and watch videos with different types of music or language sounds. We have your child play a listening or computer game with us! We are looking for typically developing children with no history of neurological or mental health disorders, developmental delays or hearing impairments. Participants will receive monetary compensation or gift and parking will be reimbursed. In addition to the reimbursement, our infant and child scientists go home with a mock diploma in our "graduation" program!

If you are interested or know anyone who would be interested, you can reach us through our email: [email protected]
