Prospective Research Assistants (RAs)
Research Topics & Focus Areas

While prior experience in psychology research is helpful, it is not required. We seek motivated individuals who are passionate about developmental psychology, social behavior, or mental health. Familiarity with research methods, infant/child development, or basic data analysis tools is a plus.
RA positions may be unpaid or for academic credit, depending on the project and your university’s policies. Some positions may offer a stipend based on funding availability. Please discuss specific arrangements with our lab coordinator.
We typically require RAs to commit 8-12 hours per week, though this may vary based on specific projects. We value reliability and flexibility, as research schedules can sometimes require weekend or evening availability.
