Dr. Roseberry is working on studies of early language acquisition. Before coming to the Institute, she earned a Ph.D. in Developmental Psychology at Temple University, where she worked with Dr. Kathy Hirsh-Pasek. Sarah’s program of research focuses on the role of social interactions in learning language, in particular, the specific mechanisms that render social cues useful to infants and toddlers. Her work at I-LABS continues to explore the idea that contingency between speakers is crucial to children’s ability to learn from social interactions.
