How do people see themselves, and how do they make decisions, like deciding whether to protest for climate change, what to spend money on, or whether to cheat on a test?
LSE is home to a lot of research that tries to understand these questions. Some of this research is specifically about young people. Come learn more about it, take part, and give your input into what researchers should be studying and how. Our Behavioural Lab will be set up with hands-on demonstrations and activities from several faculty members. You can try activities from previous research, take part in current research, see the space, and talk with researchers about this type of science.
The event is open to 8-18-year-olds, who should be accompanied by a parent or guardian (e.g., a teacher would also be fine). We will have sessions lasting approximately 1 hour (with different activities to take part in, depending on age), beginning at 1pm, 2pm, and 3pm. Each session will accommodate 25 young people (with their parents or guardians).
