Rebecca A. Dore studies how young children learn from and understand media, including educational television, YouTube videos, and technological toys, as well as how these experiences relate to development in areas like vocabulary, theory of mind (understanding others' thoughts and beliefs), and behavior. Her work often examines the roles of parents and caregivers in shaping children's media use and learning outcomes. Prospective students would engage with research combining developmental psychology methods and media/education contexts.
Publication output has fluctuated but shown an overall increase over the past decade, rising from a handful of papers per year in 2017-2019 to a higher and fairly steady output of 8-15 papers annually from 2020 onward.
