The Institute for Developmental Research at SU was founded in 2004.
Its mission is to promote collaborative research in the field of
developmental psychology, bringing together the social, emotional,
clinical, physiological and cognitive domains and to cultivate and share
with the community knowledge that enhances child and adolescent
development and family well-being. Interested in Volunteering?*A longitudinal study examining emotional development between the ages of one and three years is currently in progress. For more information please contact: Dr. Marta (“Marcy”) Losonczy-Marshall. *The Institute for Developmental Research also invites parents who have children between the ages of 12- and 30-months to participate in developmental research currently being conducted at Salisbury University. On-going research projects include memory, learning, social and emotional growth and development. Depending on the study, children may visit Salisbury University once or twice and play with toys and interact with an Experimenter. Parents accompany their children through the entire experience, and are encouraged to ask questions about their children and the research study.
Special EventsIDR currently planning and presenting a series of community seminars specifically targeted for teachers, parents and service providers in the community, often in conjunction with the Lower Shore Child Care Resource Center. During each seminar current research and new perspectives will be presented and discussed. The exact dates will be posted on this website when available. Past topics discussed in these seminars include the use of technology to foster cognitive development in the early years, how do children develop their sense of right and wrong, the development of play, and how children learn self-control.
