Developmental Psychology

In teaching, we represent developmental psychology in the B.Sc.- / M.Sc. degree program Psychology.

In our research, we deal with a broad spectrum of basic and application-oriented topics. Our research focuses on the development of text-language comprehension and memory, the acquisition of media literacy from the preschool age, media impact and learning with the media, development of spatial cognitions and mathematical competencies.

The professorship is also the scientific director of the Dr. Herbert Brause Center for Media Literacy. It is a central scientific institution that sees itself as an interdisciplinary meeting place in the field of digital media.
