Dear Colleagues,
Below is a job announcement for a Developmental Methodologist with substantive research interests in adult development and aging. Please share this with potential candidates.
Thanks,
Manfred Diehl
Assistant Professor of Human Development and Family Studies
Colorado State University (CSU)
Nine-month, tenure-track, assistant professor to contribute to our growing program in lifespan applied developmental science. We seek a developmental methodologist whose substantive research is in adult development and aging. Candidates are required to have extensive experience in the analysis of longitudinal data and the analysis of intensive repeated measures data. Experience in the analysis of data derived from the assessment of dynamic systems is highly desirable. Proficiency in the application of advanced multivariate statistics, multilevel modeling and growth curve modeling techniques is expected and should be documented via the candidate’s publication record. The candidate is expected to teach these methods at the doctoral level and apply them in collaborations with colleagues in the department and in his or her own research program. In terms of research, we define adult development and aging to encompass the entire adult lifespan from emerging adulthood to very old age. Any substantive focus in this age range is acceptable. However, candidates whose research focuses on the investigation of mechanisms of adult development and health-related outcomes are preferred. This position is designed to expand the department’s lifespan orientation and to strengthen its overall research capacity. Salary for this 9-month appointment will be competitive and commensurate with the candidate’s qualifications and experience.
