Our recent paper from the longitudinal project led by Işıl: "Early parental multimodal input is differentially associated with later vocabulary knowledge for preterm and full-term infants" @Isildogan_ @erimkizildere @oedemir @mertkobas @AsliErciyes tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Our paper on preterm children's narrative skills is now published! I am so grateful to my advisor @GoksunTilbe and amazing co-authors @serefesmer @Isildogan_ @oedemir @AsliErciyes . Our findings show that preterm children’s narratives are comparable to those of full-term children

Our paper on preschoolers’ relational reasoning with @cogpsyc_eylul @DilayKaradoller and @GoksunTilbe has recently published! We found that Turkish-speaking preschoolers succeeded at RMTS. Children who use fewer relational vocabulary relied more on working memory to succeed.

Presented our study titled "Mothers' Estimations of Their Infants' Word Comprehension: Effects on Mothers' Verbal Input" at #ICIS2024! This was my very first talk experience, and how it was exciting 👶🏼

Come and check out our latest work at #CDS2024!

I am excited to be recruiting new PhD students to Indiana University @IUPsychBrain to study preschool numeracy, math language, executive functioning, spatial skills, beliefs about effort, and more. Prospective students, please reach out if you are interested!
