Undergraduate RAs in the Scott \u201cPersonality and Psychopathology and Assessment\u201d lab are exposed to research at the intersection of personality science and psychopathology. We expect all RAs to attend one-hour weekly lab meetings, read and be prepared to discuss research articles in the areas of personality science and psychopathology, and to participate in various phases of the scientific process.<\/p>\n

Typically, when students first enter the lab, RA\u2019s assist with data collection, entry, and processing and assist in conducting ongoing studies in the lab. As students become more familiar with the research related to lab projects, have demonstrated sufficient responsibility and competence and interest in the lab, they can become involved in designing and conducting studies. Most undergraduate students enroll for 2 (6 hours a week) -3 (9 hours a week) credits in Psych 498 Research Participation.<\/p>\n

Minimum requirements for joining the team are:<\/strong>
\n\u2022 Attendance at weekly one-hour lab meetings
\n\u2022 Interest in pursuing graduate education in Psychology
\n\u2022 Minimum commitment: 6 hrs\/week (including .<\/p>\n

Undergraduate RA duties are likely to include:<\/strong>
\n\u2022 Attending weekly one-hour lab meetings that include reading research articles, discussion of theory, study design and pilot testing, reviewing lab manuscripts, and practice for presentations (e.g., thesis defenses, conference talks)
\n\u2022 Data collection: Assisting with conducting on-going lab studies. For Fall of 2022 and Spring of 2023 semesters, that is likely to include conducting assessments of personality functioning and providing personality assessment feedback.<\/p>\n
