Children's learning and decision-making are strongly influenced by social information. Learning from and with others allows them to quickly acquire new behaviors without having to take risks themselves. Social informations modulate learning and decision-making processes in the long term and influence how well children can remember what they have learned (memory). Understanding children's learning and decision-making processes and the factors that influence them is central to educational practice. However, the mechanisms underlying these processes have not yet been thoroughly researched. This is where my research comes in. The aim of my research is to investigate developmental differences in learning and decision-making processes and their interaction with social information and memory processes. I want to understand these processes in both non-applied and applied school contexts. For my research i use a multi-methodological approach, that combines experimental psychological methods, computational modeling, imaging procedures and electrophysiological examinations (EPU).
