Welcome to the Developmental PACE Lab

Ball State University

Through the use of various methodologies (e.g., EEG, ECG, Actigraphy, observations, and questionnaires), the Developmental Psychophysiological, Attention, Cognition, and Emotion (PACE) Lab is interested in investigating emotion and cognitive processes and their role in social competence, behavioral adjustment and resiliency, and academic achievement. The lab is also interested in exploring how parenting, culture, and other environmental factors might influence these associations.
