WAVES Emotion Laboratory at Florida Atlantic University The WAVES Emotion Laboratory at Florida Atlantic University We are recruiting babies from birth to 6 months!

Foundations of Personality: Baby BEAR Study

Join us for our baby BEAR study, where we are studying behavior, emotions, and regulation. The FAU WAVES Emotion Lab invites you and your infant to participate in a study aimed to investigate how babies' emerging personalities may be related to their brain activity. Participants will receive a gift card for every visit to our FAU laboratory ($50-$100), up to $375 - $450 depending on the number of completed visits. Participation involves seven “visits” with us between the time your infant is 2 and 24 months of age. We are recruiting infants who were born full term, with no prenatal or birth complications.

From research to everyday caregiving, so much of this work happens quietly, but its impact lasts a lifetime. ✨💗

You might hear us mention EEG when talking about our studies. It’s simply a safe, noninvasive way to measure brain activity while babies explore new sights and experiences, and bond with mom 🥰💞🤱

Our goal is to always keep visits comfortable, gentle, and baby-led, so families can feel confident every step of the way.
