- Do the social interactions in Mexican students differ from the American students?
- Is there a difference in emotional expression between Mexican and Americans students?
- Is there a difference between Mexican and American students in the way they use language in their every day lives?
Qualifications:
I am looking for motivated and organized Spanish-English bilinguals who understand Spanish and can write it fluently.

Work in the lab at flexible hours. Code sound recordings, transcribe natural conversations. Assist to regular lab-meetings. Possibility to get a letter of recommendation.
