2022-02-19 ～ 2022-02-20
Aomi area

In this event, we will ask the parent and child to participate in an experiment where each person is asked to press a button while watching the movements of fingers shown on a display screen. The results will show how easily you are influenced by the behavior of others and whether this trait is shared between parents and their children.

After the experiment, a researcher will give a talk about "The Psychological Mechanisms that Determine the Movements of the Body"!
