Child Narratives Lab, University of California, Irvine
The Child Narratives Lab in the Department of Psychological Science at UC Irvine, is currently recruiting a full-time postdoctoral scholar. Under the direction and supervision of the faculty director, this position entails manuscript and grant proposal writing and data analysis in addition to other managerial and coordination tasks as needed. The ideal candidate will demonstrate independence in large-scale project management, analyzing research data, and preparing written manuscripts and grant proposals. They will conduct themselves professionally with all members of the lab and when representing the lab, will have exceptional writing and analytic skills, and will complete tasks in a timely and thorough manner.
Research in the Child Narratives Lab focuses on how social context and individual differences influence children’s reports about past events. More specifically, we address questions about how the conditions under which children experience events and the conditions in which they are asked to remember those events influence what and how they recall. Much of this research focuses on developing and refining methods for helping adults (especially legal professionals) elicit accurate and complete information from children about their past experiences in a supportive and developmentally appropriate way. For more information about the lab and its ongoing projects, see our lab website: Child Narratives Lab. This position is funded by the NIH (1R01HD101617).
