Taking part in these activities will help scientists discover more about children’s behaviour and how their brains work. \n\n\n\nStudy 1: Study on decision making \n\n\n\nChildren will watch objects being placed into containers and asked to find the object. This practical task will help the researchers investigate how children make logical decisions.

Ages 4 to 12 years. \n\n\n\nPlease note that there are limited spaces and there will be a sign-up sheet available on the day to sign up to take part in the study whilst at the Museum. Taking part in one of the studies will take approximately 25 minutes per child.
