Bringing young people into the LSE Behavioural Research lab: BRL-Junior research day

I recently invited young people into our lab for the first time, as part of a combined research and public engagement event. This wouldn’t have been possible without the wonderful help of a team of volunteer student research assistants. These students shared their knowledge about the ins and outs of LSE as well as about behavioural science with our young visitors and their families—and, I hope, learned a little themselves in the process. In the spirit of sharing responsibility and passing on knowledge, one of these student research assistants has written about the event. Her piece is below, accompanied by photos from another member of the team. –Dr. Heather Kappes
