EMAIL RESUME TO HANNAH SWERBENSKI at hswerben@ur.rochester.edu BY SEPT 6 2023 (no cover letter required). Project PROMISE is a study examining the efficacy of Child Parent Psychotherapy for improving mental health and parenting among pregnant people, especially people with trauma histories (see more here: https://www.psych.rochester.edu/MHFC/transform/transform-research/). To qualify for the study, participants must live in the greater Rochester area and come from low-income backgrounds. Research Interns will be trained in behavioral coding of parent-child interactions. This involves watching videotapes of parents interacting with their babies and systematically rating the parent's behaviors. There are weekly team meetings, but otherwise your work in the lab is flexible and can be completed on your own schedule. **Students can receive course credit for their work in PSYC395** **Gain mentorship experience and professional connections to Mt. Hope Family Center** **Gain research experience for future employment and graduate school!**
Desired Experience
No experience necessary, although research methods or developmental psychology coursework is a plus!
