Adine DeLeon

Adine DeLeon is a doctoral student in applied human development at Boston University Wheelock College of Education & Human Development. She conducts research in the Social Learning Lab, where she examines how children reason about social status, wealth, and money, and how these early judgments shape their social interactions. Her broader interests include understanding how children’s everyday experiences, such as conversations with parents and peers, inform their developing views on financial decision-making, responsibility, and opportunity.
