Most assistants who work in the lab are highly committed to advanced graduate training in clinical psychology and see their present research experiences in the lab as the beginning of their eventual career as clinical scientists and practitioners. Many research assistants tend to work more than 1 year (two academic semesters) in the lab. Special lab requirements exist for students wishing to use their research assistantship for credit in 297/397 courses. Our lab is very much like a family; we do our best to honor each other's values and use our time together to foster research ideas and cultivate professional development.
