Welcome! Here at the KIND Lab, we are dedicated to understanding children’s emotional development and behavior.

We are currently looking for families in the Inland Empire to participate in our paid study on what emotions children aged 8-13 feel about climate change and how they cope with these emotions. You and your child will be asked questions about your child’s emotional and mental health. Your child will also answer questions about what kind of emotions they feel in response to climate change, and what they do when they feel these emotions. The visit will take place in person on the UCR campus and will last for about 1 hour. During this time, your child will be going through some questions with a research assistant while you will fill out your own survey in a separate room. Once the visit is complete, you will receive $60 in cash as a thank-you for participating. For more information, please see our Study Flyer.

We are also looking for children between the ages of 8 and 12 to participate in our visual attention study. Our study consists of one visit, taking about 1 hour. During your visit, both you and your child would answer questions about your child’s behavior and emotions, and your child would participate in a computer task. Your child will also participate in computer games, where their eye movement will be recorded using an eye tracker while watching a series of short videos. Your child can stop at any time and decide not to participate. If your child qualifies for the study, and if you and your child come to UCR and participate, we will give you a $25 Amazon gift card as a thank-you. For more information, please see our Study Flyer.

Please fill out the form below if you’re interested in participating or would like more information! If you’d like to speak to someone, you’re more than welcome to call or email us here: ‪(951) 790-2047‬ or kindlabucr@gmail.com. We look forward to meeting you!
