They will participate in team meetings. All necessary training will be provided.
The successful applicant will have a good degree in Psychology or a related relevant discipline. Experience of working on a school-based research project or a clinical trial is desirable. The successful applicant must also have a clean driving licence and access to a car to travel to data collection sites. Essential qualities include strong organisational and communication skills, especially with children, parents, and teachers, and excellent attention to detail, time management skills, and an ability to work independently.
Desirable qualities include experience working with autistic children, an understanding of research methods, basic statistics (e.g., use of SPSS or R), and data manipulation (e.g., using Excel).
