------ RESEARCH ASSISTANT POSITION ------
Interested in language, cognition, and development? The Department of Psychology is looking for a full time Research Assistant. This is a one year fixed term position with possibility of renewal. RA will assist with empirical work on language learning, social development, and cross-cultural cognition. Duties will include assisting in designing, creating, running, and analyzing experiments with infants, children, and adults (including experiments delivered using web-based platforms); coordinating and recruiting undergraduate research assistants; coordinating participant recruitment; and assisting in planning lab events and meetings. RA will have opportunities for scientific involvement in conference presentations and journal articles.

Qualifications: RA should have working knowledge of MS Office and good organizational and communication skills. Frequent email and phone communication will be necessary, and keeping organized (scheduling and record-keeping) is an essential part of the job. Previous research experience is strongly preferred. A good candidate will have additional technical skills such as programming (Python and R for data analysis, JavaScript/HTML/CSS for web programming), statistical knowledge, and graphic design (Photoshop/Illustrator/Dreamweaver). Must be a quick learner, able to work independently, and show initiative. The position is ideal for individuals who wish to further their research training.
