Please post the following job announcement.


The Perception and Attention Lab at Michigan State University is 
seeking a full time lab manager.  The lab is headed by Mark W. 
Becker, PhD. and uses a combination of behavioral methods and eye 
tracking to investigate the role of attention in visual 
perception.  Currently, our main projects include investigating how 
emotional stimuli and one's mood influence attentional processing and 
investigating the interactions between working memory and 
attention.  The position requires a bachelors degree in Psychology or 
a related field, knowledge of the scientific method and statistics, 
and basic computer skills.  Ability to program (e-prime, matlab, C++, 
visual basic, or python) and familiarity with SPSS would be a 
plus.  The main duties will be to oversee day to day operations of 
the lab, run subjects, and analyze data.  The manager will also 
assist with programming of experiments, writing of human subjects 
proposals, and performing background literature reviews.  More 
information about the lab is available at 
<https://www.msu.edu/~becker54/lab/labindex.htm>https://www.msu.edu/~becker54/lab/labindex.htm. 
The position requires a one year commitment and is ideal for a recent 
graduate who is seeking additional research experience before 
applying to graduate school.  For additional information or to apply 
please contact Mark Becker at <mailto:becker54 at msu.edu>becker54 at msu.edu.


Thanks,

Mark
