About Zhixin Li

I am an incoming PhD student at Syracuse University School of Information Studies in Fall 2024. I will be advised by Dr. Jaime Banks. I hold a Master’s degree at Marsal Family School of Education at the University of Michigan where I am currently being advised by Dr. Ying Xu. I am always eager to learn children’s minds and behaviors when interacting with conversational agents. I apply theoretical frameworks and methodologies from cognitive psychology, human-computer interaction, and communication to examine how children socially and critically think about conversational AI.
