Child Attention and Learning Lab

Department of Psychology

Welcome!

The Child Attention and Learning Lab studies the cognitive and neuropsychological processes that contribute to the development of attention problems in children. Ultimately, we hope that this work will help us better identify children with attention problems, as well as guide the development of treatments to target the neurocognitive causes of the disorder.

The lab is directed by Dr. Cynthia Huang-Pollock, Professor of Psychology at Penn State University.

If you are a participant in one of our studies, or would like to learn more about participating, please contact us at  or 814-863-0250.
