About Kaitlyn Harrigan

Professor Harrigan’s research area is language acquisition, which investigates how children develop from infants prepared to learn any of the world’s languages, to competent speakers of their specific languages within the first three years of life. Her work has investigated the various kinds of cues that children use to learn words—from linguistic cues like phonological information and syntactic distribution, to broader cognitive skills like visual salience and social instincts.
