Baby & Probability

Eden participated in a research with UBC (University of British Columbia) in mid January. The experiment Eden did was called "Baby Mathematician". They said it's about testing baby's ability to understand probability. You can read more details about the study at their website: http://www.psych.ubc.ca/~babylab/research.htm . It was fun but also kinda silly. Eden sat through two studies. One involves her watching someone cut up an orange 10 times. (ohhh, what a surprising event!) The other one is more complicated which involves colorful pingpong balls being dropped in transparent cases.

Eden enjoyed the time there and received a free UBC Baby T-Shirt and a Diploma!
We are happy to make contribution to the community!
