The UC Riverside Perception, Action, and Development Lab studies:
- - Natural visual experiences of infants, children, and adults in everyday tasks
- - How changes in the body alter visual access to the environment
- - Visual guidance of motor skills like reaching, walking, and crawling
- - Perceptual recalibration to changing possibilities for action
