Einat was awarded a Fulbright Postdoctoral Fellowship to pursue her research project titled “Early Bias in Inter-Wealth Peer Context: A Pioneering Inquiry into Young Children’s Attribution of Intentions.” This project will be carried out in the Social and Moral Development Laboratory, led by Professor Melanie Killen.
