Description:
This semester, the Bigler lab will be working on several projects relating to stereotype development and children’s understanding of race and gender. These will include collecting data from children in preschool, elementary school, and middle school. We will also be designing an intervention to reduce gender stereotyping in elementary school children. Most of our research is conducted in area schools, day care centers, and afterschool programs, rather than in a laboratory setting.
Qualifications:
We are seeking students who are enthusiastic, hard-working, and interested in this area of research. Students should be interested in working with children, as well as responsible and reliable.
Duties:
Collecting data from children ages 3-13, designing stimuli, library research, coding and entering data, attending a lab meeting each week, writing a short paper on your research experience
