Research Assistant Positions
Gender, Culture, and Health Lab
Application
The Gender, Culture, and Health Lab is seeking conscientious, detail-oriented undergraduate research assistants who can dedicate at least 3 hours per week to help with studies related to gender and health outcomes across diverse populations, starting in the Summer or Fall 2020 semester. Projects will focus on how gender norms (e.g., masculinity and femininity) affect mental health outcomes, especially related to alcohol and substance use, disordered eating, and sexual assault and violence. Research findings will be used to better understand the intersections of gender and health and to create interventions to improve health outcomes. A psychology major is not required. Students of diverse and underrepresented backgrounds and identities are actively encouraged to apply. Students who are rising sophomores are also especially encouraged to apply. Students selected to work as RAs can potentially earn research credit.
