APA PsyTalks video series debuts with a talk by IU distinguished professor and chancellor's professor Linda Smith on how babies learn

The inaugural episode of PsyTalks, APA's series of 'TED-style' presentations by prominent psychologists, features IU distinguished professor and chancellor’s professor of psychological and brain sciences, Linda Smith, with an explanation of how movement and sight determine how babies learn.

As part of its public education campaign, APA is launching a video series titled PsyTalks with an episode explaining how babies' movements provide the experiences from which they learn. Linda Smith, distinguished professor and chancellor's professor of psychological and brain sciences at Indiana University, hosts the episode, the first featuring psychology's leading researchers discussing their latest findings.
