The Max Planck Insti­tute for Human Deve­lop­ment is dedi­ca­ted to the study of human deve­lop­ment and edu­ca­tion, as well as human - machine inter­ac­tion. Rese­ar­chers of various discip-lines – inclu­ding psy­cho­logy, edu­ca­tion, socio­logy, medi­cine, history, eco­no­mics, com­pu­ter sci­ence, and mathe­ma­tics – work tog­e­ther on inter­di­sci­pli­nary pro­jects at the Ber­lin Insti­tute. The rese­arch ques­ti­ons they examine include how people make effec­tive decisi­ons even under time pres­sure and infor­ma­tion over­load, how the inter­ac­tion bet­ween beha­viour and brain func­tion chan­ges over the life­span, as well as how human emo­ti­ons change in a his­to­ri­cal con­text and how they have affec­ted the course of history its­elf and what social inno­va­tions and chal­len­ges come with digi­ta­li­za­tion.
