This is content from a page at the old CHS webpage to keep and add to docs! From https://childrenhelpingscience.com/researcher-resources

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.

TheChildLab.com at Yale https://www.thechildlab.com/for-researchers

The Social Learning Lab at Stanford https://github.com/sociallearninglab/online_testing_materials

OSF Library of Assessment Designs https://osf.io/2yz6r/

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.

Lookit https://github.com/lookit/research-resources/wiki

PANDA http://discoveriesonline.org/

While working on this issue, I noticed that the recruitment materials that we provide to researchers are pretty out of date: https://github.com/lookit/research-resources/tree/master/Recruitment
Just wondering if we want to remove the link to that material, update the flyers/brochures, or leave everything as is?

I found a few more things that are out of date:

  • The link for The Child Lab at Yale is broken. I found this site: https://thechildlab.yale.edu/ but I can't find a "for researchers" type page.
  • The PANDA site says that they aren't currently hosting studies for other labs, and they refer researchers to Lookit instead 😄. But they do have some info about running developmental studies remotely, so I'll just refer to that content.
  • The ICIS webinar link was broken but I found a working link.

@msheskin I put a PR for this change to the docs, in case you want to review it: #454

The child lab link at Yale can just be removed -- PI Frank Keil is winding down his lab and that is no longer an active URL. I think the other listed resources now cover what would have been at that link (back in 2018 we had some state-of-the-art things there, but now in 2025 there are many other places for people to look!)
