Position description:
The Emotion Regulation lab is looking for Psych 290 undergraduate research assistants for

regulation (or dysregulation) of such emotional processes contributes to the development and
maintenance of psychological disorders. Research assistants will be trained in recruiting
participants, running studies, data collection, and data management, skills that are valuable if you
consider graduate schools in psychology after graduation. Given this is a credit PSYC 290
