Social Sciences - Social Perceptions and Intergroup Relations: Our social psychology lab is looking for conscientious, motivated, and enthusiastic research assistants to help us investigate how people feel, think, and act toward various stigmatized people and groups, and why they react in these ways. This is a valuable opportunity to learn first-hand about research, gain important experience for graduate school and the job market, and earn PSY 3912 credit. You will collect data, explore the research literature, participate in lab group discussions, and perform various other research-related tasks--all while learning about stigma, prejudice, stereotyping, and discrimination.

Requirements: Conscientiousness; dependability; strong desire to learn about the research process; comfort leading small group interactions; interest in social psychology, especially stigma, prejudice, stereotyping, and discrimination. Completion of General Psychology (PSY 2012) and Social Psychology (SOP 3004) strongly preferred. Please contact Dr. Cottrell for more information.
