One of our goals on social media include sharing findings from relevant studies. We love this study and what it teaches us about children and their grasp of equity and equality. What do you think?

Full study: Elenbaas, L. (2019). Against unfairness: young children's judgments about merit, equity, and equality.

About us! 🌟 Part 1 of 3

Sobre el proyecto de festivales: Desde Donde Empezamos

Así como han comenzado otros estudios de investigación, comenzamos como un par de profesores con una pregunta de investigación.
Queríamos saber cómo los padres socializan con sus hijos sobre los grupos raciales y socioeconómicos dentro de nuestra sociedad. Nuestro equipo creció rápidamente para incluir a estudiantes graduados e no graduados. Nuestros recursos para financiar y realizar un estudio se expandieron y justo el año
pasado comenzamos a recopilar datos de las familias y en la áreas alrededor del condado de Salt Lake City, Utah.
