PSY 357 Representational Shift
UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH PROJECT

Faculty:
Art Markman, Ph.D.
Contact:
Jeff Laux laux@mail.utexas.edu
Description:
Ideas can shift around in your head leading to insights and connections that weren‚t initially apparent. How does that happen? Answering that question requires first understanding how ideas can shift when thought
about from different perspectives. This project aims to examine those mechanisms.
Qualifications:
We are looking for enthusiastic, responsible, hard-working undergraduates to work in our lab. Attention to detail is a must. It is best if you have taken a course in statistics and a course in cognitive psychology, but they are not required.
Duties:
Research assistants will run experiments. Students are expected to work 15-20 hours per week. Lab hours are flexible. Other tasks may include: data entry, coding and analysis, making stimuli, and attending lab meetings.
