The George Mason University, Department of Criminology, Law and
Society invites applications for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow
position. Professors Faye Taxman and Danielle Rudes seek to

factors to enhance intrinsic motivation for the syndemics of
offending, substance abuse and HIV risk behaviors.
The study will examine the impact of a brief intervention on
motivation, as well as access to key services and HIV testing. The
purpose is to support continued longitudinal follow-up offenders; as
well as to design several randomized intervention studies to reduce
substance use, HIV risk, recidivism, and to enhance outcomes.
Postdoctoral duties include: working on the study protocol, creating
and maintaining databases, conducting sophisticated statistical
analyses, managing field staff, collaborating with lab members on
empirical articles, assisting in the design of new studies, and
assisting in the supervision of our outstanding Graduate Research
Assistants and field staff.
Successful candidates will have a Ph.D. in a social science or
criminology; outstanding quantitative skills including experience with
SPSS and SAS; and excellent writing and presentation skills.
Experience with randomized controlled data and the study of change
