Wishing Radu Urian – our very own lab coordinator – an immense congratulations on his presentation at the Human Development and Child Learning Symposium held at Concordia University.

Entitled “Prosocial responses to diverse needs in urban Canadian and rural Tzotzil Maya children”, the talk highlighted critical research done at the CSCD lab with children from a rural indigenous Maya community in Zinacantán, Mexico. This research project explored the different cultural manifestations of prosocial behavior – it turns out that while the capacity for prosocial behavior develops universally across every culture, the way prosociality is expressed varies between cultures. For example, on average, Canadian children are encouraged to help around the house even when they’re unhelpful, while Tzotzil Maya children are only expected to help when they can meaningfully contribute to their household. We are very proud of our lab coordinator for getting out of his comfort zone and taking on the important task of communicating our research with the broader scientific community!
