Resources for Researchers Developing Online Studies
Building on previous advances is a core part of every scientific discipline. There are additional advantages to using standard approaches in online child research: some families will choose to participate in studies from multiple researchers, and using standard approaches can lead to a more consistent experience. This can be especially important when trying to minimize “cognitive load” for young children. Below are links to a variety of groups developing approaches and discussing options. Some of these links are starting points that link to other resources (e.g., example PowerPoint or Keynote slides for consent and warmup).

Getting Started
The below two labs have posted materials about how to get started, including working with IRBs, how to do online consent, and ideas for different study designs.

Testing babies online over Zoom (part 1, part 2)

Hosting Studies
Although many online child studies are done over video chat as a scheduled session, others are “asynchronous” and “unmoderated.” Here are two platforms you can investigate to potentially create and host unmoderated studies.
