معرفی
Tricia Skoler is a Professor of Developmental Psychology at the School of Arts and Sciences, Hunter College (CUNY). Her research focuses on developmental trajectories, neuroscience, autism, and infant social cognition. She holds a PhD from Emory University and leads a lab emphasizing interdisciplinary approaches, requiring prospective students to read Doing Developmental Research (Guilford Press). She is currently accepting students for Spring 2025 courses (201 and 395).
Her work spans neuroscience, architectural design, biophilia, and health psychology, integrating methodologies like EEG and statistical physics to study gaze processing, joint attention, and social-cognitive development in infants and children with ASD. Key contributions include understanding neural correlates of eye gaze in early infancy and contextual influences on social skills.
Publications highlight themes such as gaze-following deficits in autism, the role of social cues in learning, and developmental neuroscience. Her research bridges basic science and applied contexts, including biophilic design and nutrition education.
Lab inquiries must follow guidelines in Chapter 1 of her book. No explicit awards are listed, but her extensive publication record reflects recognition in developmental and cognitive neuroscience.
