Very proud to share this important work by PhD student @teruniahamat.bsky.social who is leading the way in open science for developmental psychology. Interested in collaborating or learning more about our Databrary corpus? Please feel free to reach out and connect with us.

Excited to share my first PhD article, published in Scientific Data 👉 rdcu.be/eIRqD

We present the Shared Book Reading Corpus: 44 caregiver-infant dyads, 3 camera views (headcams + overview), speech transcriptions & developmental measures.

ManyBabies 3: A Multi-Lab Study of Infant Algebraic Rule Learning: https://osf.io/ghrdt

The Manybabies4 paper is out! Infants' Social Evaluation of Helpers and Hinderers: A Large-Scale, Multi-Lab, Coordinated Replication Study onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1... 1000 babies tested in 37 labs; "Overall, 49.34% of infants preferred Helpers over Hinderers in the social condition"

Congratulations 👏🏼🎉

📌

Huge congratulations and very well-deservered! Very happy to be able to nominate your work for this award.

Our paper tinyurl.com/4upbjayy showed children can create foundations of phonetics and phonology: discreteness of form units and duality of patterning. We analyzed handshapes in homesign (gesture by deaf children without linguistic input) and mothers' co-speech gesture.

Very grateful to the organisers for pulling off such a wonderful three days. We had a great time at #ISGS10 @isgs2025.bsky.social and are already looking forward to ISGS11 in Hong Kong!

Had some great discussions today at poster session 2 at ISGS 2025 on my work studying caregiver iconic gestures produced during shared book reading with infants! @isgs2025.bsky.social

Bright and early at the first day of ISGS10! @isgs2025.bsky.social with @teruniahamat.bsky.social and @sotarokita.bsky.social

Just arrived at the MPI in Nijmegen for the MULTIDATA workshop and it's nice to see so many gesture colleagues here. Excited about this pre-conference workshop and the full @isgs2025.bsky.social programme!

I find it interesting that humans probably just miss the f in 'of' leading to a count that only includes the f in the content words of the sentence, but AI got a different wrong count, so maybe comparing human vs AI performance as well as the explanation of the answer could show how humanlike AI is.

Good points. I like the letter f question, which funnily enough AI got wrong when prompted.

Another set of great talks from our 1st year PGRs at today's Department Seminar! Marie Stracke (@mariestracke.bsky.social), Elsie Wu (@elsiewu.bsky.social), Chunxi Liang (@chunxi-liang.bsky.social) and Zilan Zou (@zilanzou.bsky.social) each shared insights into their current research.

Nick Chater now introducing the idea of social tinkering and spontaneous order and their role in the origin of language @mh-christiansen.bsky.social #LLGAwayDay @warwickpsych.bsky.social

Here is what 2 years of fieldwork looks like! 🙌 also 👏 to Ani’s husband for taking on the lead acting role in the project and posing as a 🐅😮

And now Chris Strelluf from Applied Linguistics on testing the limits of linguistic plasticity with admittedly the best title yet! #LinguisticsSky can you spot the insider joke? #LLGAwayDay @warwickpsych.bsky.social

And here is a clue to the joke if you need it!

Next up Annamaria Pinter, HoS at Applied Linguistics gives us a summary of her research @warwickpsych.bsky.social #LLGAwayDay
