Conducting Research

The Child Development Laboratories considers applications for research to be conducted on site. A Background check through the State of Connecticut Office of Early Childhood is required to interact with children at the UConn Child Labs. All proposals are reviewed by the Executive Director and the CDL Research Review Committee. The following points are taken into consideration:

• Compliance with professional ethics codes for conducting research
• The degree of disruption to classroom programs
• The number of research projects currently taking place
