RESOURCES
Here are some resources that have helped my mentees and me, and that I hope you'll find helpful.
UNDERGRADS
I've included resources on our “Join the Team” page about getting involved in research. Here are some additional resources.
I encourage folks to check out resources on the Psych Research List (run by Dr. Meltem Yucel).
Harvard PPREP: a program that supports undergrads' applications for RA and PhD positions.
A lot of labs and organizations will advertise for paid research opportunities in developmental psychology on these listservs (email lists): ICIS and CDS.
GRAD STUDENTS
I highly recommend reading Dr. Barbara Sarnecka’s book “The Writing Workshop: Write More, Write Better, Be Happier in Academia” (2019).
Here are some summer workshops that graduate students may be interested in:
DIVERSITY, INCLUSION, AND BELONGING
These are some of the resources that have informed and/or supported my approach to issues of diversity, inclusion, and belonging.
"Racial Inequality in Psychological Research" (by Dr. Steven Roberts and colleagues)
The SPARK Society’s Scholars of Color Database
The Gender Citation Balance Index (by Drs. Jacqueline Fulvio and Brad Postle)
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
The PINE Lab (PI: Dr. Laurel Gabard-Dunham) maintains resources on professional development for folks of all academic levels.
The Cognitive Development Society organizes a mentorship program, for folks at all levels.
If you're job-hunting (anywhere from a postdoc, to a faculty job, to an undergrad summer internship), I recommend signing up for the following listservs (email lists): ICIS and CDS.
RESEARCH FUNDING
I've shared some funding opportunities at the undergrad, grad, and postdoc levels on the "Join the Team" page.
I also encourage you to check out these repositories (maintained by Johns Hopkins University) for folks at all levels (from undergrad to faculty).
