Department Summary

The Prevention Science Institute (PSI) is a multi-disciplinary institute focused on understanding human development, preventing behavioral health problems, and implementing effective interventions in community settings. The PSI encompasses focus areas consistent with the field of prevention science, including prevention and intervention, and implementation science.

Understanding effective intervention strategies and the outcomes associated with these interventions across multiple domains of functioning, including biological, social, and contextual, is the focus of research at the PSI. The core mission of the PSI is to improve the lives and well-being of children, individuals, and families throughout the lifespan. The PSI is committed to research that expands our understanding of interventions and development with diverse populations, and actively seeks to promote research that reduces health disparities in service utilization.

Position Summary

Postdoctoral scholars seek to improve skills in independent research through direct, mentored scholarship with faculty for the purpose of acquiring research training. Principal Investigators are collaborative in their research activities and postdoctoral scholars are expected to serve in both lead and supporting roles in manuscript development and other project activities. The nature of the work is relatively fast-paced and we value rigor, reproducibility, and productivity in scholarship from all members of the research team, while maintaining a positive and supportive work environment.

Successful candidates will have the ability to work effectively with faculty, staff, and students from a variety of diverse backgrounds. Postdocs may provide guidance and oversight to undergraduate and graduate students.

For the purpose of acquiring additional professional skills needed to pursue a career path in the chosen field, this position requires a formal mentor plan and Individualized Development Plan.

Positions are limited duration, funding contingent appointments that may be part-time or short-term contracts not to exceed one year, and may be renewed for up to three years. An additional two year extension may be granted with approval from the Office of the Vice President for Research for a total appointment of five years. Renewals will be dependent upon program needs, funding, and performance. Salary will be dependent upon education and experience.

Minimum Requirements

• PhD in a related field such as education, psychology, prevention science, special education, or quantitative methodology, by start of position.
• Experience in the field of research.
• Evidence of scholarship (e.g. publications, presentations, grant submissions).
• Experience using advanced quantitative methodologies.
• Coursework and training in quantitative methods (e.g. SEM, Growth Modeling, etc).
