My symposium will explore children's understanding of social hierarchy. How do children think status is earned? What does it mean to be high status? When should power be transferred? Speakers include @aashnap.bsky.social, @katiemcauliffe.bsky.social, and Mack Briscoe! Come Saturday afternoon!

Come check out the UChicago Social Kids Lab (PIs Katherine Kinzler and Alex Shaw) at #SRCD2025. My labmates have lots of exciting projects I can't wait to watch them present.

The UChicago Social Kids Lab will be at CDS! Come stop by our posters and see what we've been thinking about lately!

In our paper, we explore both social and physical conflicts. In (very) short, we find that older children specifically and reliably generalized dominance, not submissiveness. We discuss many reasons why this might be the case in the paper!

Reposting information about our postprint here: If Gretchen Wieners tells Regina George, “You can’t sit with us,” children know Gretchen is now dominant and Regina is now subordinate. But how do Gretchen and Regina rank relative to Cady Heron, who was uninvolved in this conflict?
