  1. Finalized a nearly short-enough version of my Quals reading list.
  2. Finished running an 8 kid version of the new kid mammals task, in case you're wondering 7/8 kids picked the informatively modifying speaker.
  3. Set up a version of the task where the kids get no feedback, and are just told that if they guess right that they'll get the stickers at the end.
  4. Started watching all of the kid videos.
  5. Tried to find papers looking at how frequently parents use scalar / color adjectives in the presence of a contrast. Found debatably http://fla.sagepub.com/content/early/2013/09/30/0142723713503146.abstract. If you know of others I'd love to hear about it.

  6. Ran a sample task with the EyeTribe and the Eyelink with Linda. If I can ever get NumPy to update I'll be able to compare the data.
