Project AHEAD (Advancing Health and Education for Adolescent Development) investigates how gender-based socialization during the adolescent years (e.g., gender roles, gender stereotypes) shapes adolescent adjustment outcomes, particularly mental/emotional health and academic well-being. We will be collecting two waves of longitudinal data on a national sample of adolescents between Fall 2019 and Winter 2020. RAs are being sought to begin as early as Summer 2019. Potential applicants are encouraged to have taken Research Methods and Statistics. Prior research experience is encouraged, but not required.
New RAs can receive course credit (SFL 403R and Psych 430R). Experienced RAs (previously employed with Project AHEAD) can apply to receive pay.
RA Tasks:
- Contact Participants
- Engage in recruitment
- Enter and clean/code data
- Engage in writing and presenting research
