安妮特·亨德森博士是新西兰奥克兰大学心理学系的教授。她的研究聚焦婴儿和早期儿童社会与认知发展的核心方面，包括生物学和经验因素在语言和非语言合作行为发展中的作用。理解早期儿童合作发展的重要性在于，我们日常的功能、整体福祉以及我们物种的生存，都依赖于我们与他人良好合作的能力。

Dr. Henderson is a professor at the Department of Psychology, University of Auckland. She investigates central facets of social and cognitive development in infancy and early childhood including the role that biological and experiential factors play in the development of linguistic and non-linguistic cooperative behaviour. Understanding the development of cooperation in early childhood is crucial because our everyday functioning, overall wellbeing, and the very survival of our species, rests on our abilities to work well and cooperate with others.
