Dr. Younger-Rossmann's general research interests are in early perceptual and cognitive development. The primary focus of her research has been on the development of categorization abilities in infants.
She is also interested in relationships between categorization and language. Topics under investigation include (1) developmental change in perceptually-based object categorization at the global- or basic-level, (2) infants' use of form-function correlations in categorization and the ability to infer unseen functional properties of novel category members, (3) analytic processing strategies in categorization and language. |
