Opening for a Behavioral Science PhD student at the University of North Texas (Addictive Behaviors focus)

Dr. Casey Guillot is looking to accept at least one applicant as a doctoral student to start in the Fall 2020 semester. This student will be mentored by him and will work as a research assistant in his lab, the Disposition, Emotion, & Addiction Research (DEAR) Laboratory, which is broadly interested in the etiology of addictive behaviors. The DEAR Lab recently initiated an experimental study on anxiety sensitivity and other psychological factors (e.g., experiential avoidance, executive functioning) in relation to the effects of cigarette smoking, and will soon initiate a survey study on potential associations of discrimination experiences, personality, and mood with various health behaviors (e.g., social media and alcohol, cigarette, e-cigarette, cannabis, and other substance use). Behavioral Science faculty members with additional research interests will also be considering applicants, including Drs. Kim Kelly, Rex Wright, Yolanda Flores-Niemann, Adriel Boals, and Danica Slavish. For students interested in applying to work with Dr. Guillot, visit his website: DEAR Lab website
