'Social Perception in Childhood', the second of four workshops on 'Mechanisms of social perception across the lifespan' takes place on Wednesday 26 June, 10am-4pm, in the New Academic Building.

The workshop will bring together leading experts to discuss the development of mechanisms of social perception in childhood, the impact of maltreatment on social development, and how differences in social perception abilities contribute to broader social interactions during childhood.
