Rate My Professor Antje von Suchodoletz

She founded and directs the Teaching, Learning, and Development Lab at NYU Abu Dhabi, focusing her research on child development, early childhood education, and caregiver-child interactions. Her work examines the interactional and contextual nature of learning and development, including schools' readiness to implement effective teaching strategies and improvements in young children's self-regulation and social competence skills. She investigates physiological and biological foundations of self-regulation and associations between classroom processes, teacher-child relationships, and these processes across cultures. Key publications include Behavioral self-regulation and relations to emergent academic skills among children in Germany and Iceland (Early Childhood Research Quarterly, 2013), A typical morning in preschool: Observations of teacher-child interactions in German preschools (Early Childhood Research Quarterly, 2014), Examination of teacher-child interactions in early childhood education programmes in the United Arab Emirates (International Journal of Early Years Education, 2020), Early childhood education and care quality and associations with child outcomes: A meta-analysis (PLoS One, 2023), and Parenting programs in the Middle East/North Africa (MENA) region: A multilevel meta-analysis (Early Childhood Research Quarterly, 2025).
