Dr. Vendetti completed her Masters’s and PhD at Carleton University where she studied preschoolers’ cognitive and social-cognitive development: things like self-control and attention, moral development, and understanding other people’s minds.

Through this work, she began to wonder how children’s understanding of other people’s thoughts and actions influenced their own behaviour and she has been investigating this question ever since!

Dr. Vendetti is most inspired by her own kids who are always surprising her with the funny and fantastic things they say and do!
