*Position Summary*
The Behavioral Laboratory at the Stanford Graduate School of Business (GSB) anticipates hiring *two* full-time Research Assistants for a one-year term beginning August, 2007. This is an excellent opportunity for a recent bachelor's-level graduate with a strong background in social science research to build experience and relationships in preparation for graduate school.
The Laboratory consists of approximately 30 faculty and Ph.D. students conducting a wide variety of experimental research in social psychology, organizational behavior and marketing. For further information about the Behavioral Laboratory, please visit our web site at:

*Responsibilities*
About 25% of the RA's time will be spent providing direct research support to faculty and graduate students at the GSB (data coding and entry; running experiment sessions; designing studies; etc.); about 25% will be spent providing direct research support to the Behavioral Laboratory co-directors (lit searches; developing study hypotheses and materials; programming computer-based studies; etc.); and about 50% will involve administrative tasks associated with running subject pools and shared lab facilities (e-mail and communications; website maintenance; coordinating lab space scheduling; etc.). Training will be provided. Hours are flexible, and the RA has opportunities to sit in on lab meetings, seminars, and (with faculty permission) occasional graduate-level courses. Supervision may be minimal or intensive, depending on the project. The position is a one-year fixed term (renewable).
*Qualifications*
The successful candidate will be an extremely bright, independent self-starter who can take initiative, see projects through to completion, and understand the unique priorities and demands of lab-based experimentation. Excellent computer skills (Word, Excel, HTML or FrontPage, etc.) and knowledge of research design and statistics are essential; experience with computer-based experimentation and web studies is desirable. Ability to balance multiple, competing projects and supervisors a must.
