Description:
Why do most people behave like absolute jerks at times and like angels at other times? How can we predict who will do this, and under what conditions? Our behavioral endocrinology lab studies these and other fascinating phenomena by measuring peoplesŐ hormone levels, placing them into various challenging social situations and then observing their behavior. You can be an integral part of this important undertaking by signing up for 357 with the Josephs lab.
Qualifications:
We require responsible, hard-working, mature individuals who can devote at least 8-12 hours/week of their time.
Duties:
You will be spending most of your time running the experiment. This means that you will be scheduling participants and running them through the experimental procedures. You will be working closely with graduate students and other 357 students. You will also, if you wish, learn salivary assay procedures.
