Stay tuned for future projects that look at both expectations about dual identity *and* the development of social preferences based on immigration and acculturation behaviors

In an elegant set of experiments, @shreyasodhi.bsky.social compared children's inferences about immigrants to their inferences about non-immigrants and travelers (people who *visited* a second country).
Children did not essentialize immigrants' national identity, and instead expected flexibility!

Not sure of such a study with younger babies, but that may be because babies have to be able to physically move (crawl) for the visual cliff paradigm. Many babies are not crawling until 9-10 mon. Younger infants do interesting stuff re:emotion. Check out Eric Walle or Ashley Ruba for examples
