If you are at #BCCCD26 check out @verenaschaefer.bsky.social poster titled ‘Laughing Together, Connecting Together: How Shared Laughter Shapes Synchrony and Liking in Child Peers?’ today at 2:30 pm 🤩🧠

🥳 So pleased to share our new publication: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... The whole @kinderstudien.bsky.social lab got together to do a little scientific retreat last year and this is the result - a truly developmental perspective on the phenomenon of interpersonal neural synchrony 🧠🧠 👨‍🍼👩‍🍼

A developmental framework of interpersonal neural synchrony

Interpersonal neural synchrony (INS), the temporal alignment of brain activities between individuals, has been proposed as a biomarker for successful …

Check out our new preprint on how infants respond to music over the first year of life! 👶🧠💃🎶 While neural responses are pretty much ready to go in the youngest, moving to music takes a bit longer, becoming more complex and potentially more dance-like by 12 months. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Development of Auditory and Spontaneous Movement Responses to Music over the First Year of Life

Humans across cultures not only share the ability to recognise music but also respond to it through movement. While the sensory encoding of music is well-studied, when and how infants naturally start ...
