Description:
Our research examines differences between how people see themselves (self-perceptions) and how they are seen by others. Why do these two perspectives differ? Which is more accurate? What do people know about themselves that others don’t know about them, and vice versa?
Qualifications:
Research assistants must be responsible and motivated, able to work independently, familiar with PsycINFO reference searches and Excel database, and comfortable designing and running experiments in the lab (with supervision/guidance).
Duties:
Research assistants will work approximately 6-10 hours/week on literature searches, generating research ideas, helping with study design and preparation, running participants in the lab, and coding personality markers from photos and video.
