Interested in gaining experience in research?
Students
will serve as research assistants for the Family Involvement Lab, which
is currently conducting a study on Latino immigrant mothers, fathers,
& children. The goal of the study is to understand how mothers’
& fathers' values, goals, & beliefs influence their children’s
social and academic skills.
Research assistants will
code/transcribe mother-child and father-child play and reading
interactions, conduct short literature reviews; participate in data
collection; recruit parents; schedule visits; & enter data. This is a
great opportunity for students who are interested in pursuing graduate
work in the social sciences. Depending on interest & skill-level,
there will be opportunities to write honors theses and participate in
papers for publication.Interested students should send their unofficial transcript and resume to Jenessa Malin and jlmalin@umd.edu. For additional information on our lab, see our website at www.popcenter.umd.edu/filab
