12-year-old uses Dungeons and Dragons to help scientist dad with his research
The paper describing the results—delightfully entitled “Monsters are people too”...
"Alan Kingstone, a psychologist at the University of British Columbia, had a
problem: all humans have their eyes in the middle of their faces, and there’s
nothing that Kingstone could do about it. His 12-year-old son, Julian Levy,
had the solution: monsters. While some monsters are basically humanoid in
shape, others have eyes on their hands, tails, tentacles and other unnatural
body parts. Perfect. Kingstone would use monsters. And Julian would get his
first publication in a journal from the Royal Society, one of the world’s most
august scientific institutions."
