[#DIV28SUPER] Opening for a Behavioral Science PhD student at the University of North Texas (Addictive Behaviors focus)

Dear Colleagues,

I am requesting that you share this announcement about applying to the University of North Texas (UNT) Behavioral Science PhD Program, which is part of the UNT Department of Psychology in Denton, located in the greater Dallas-Fort Worth area.

In particular, I (Dr. Casey Guillot) am looking to accept at least one applicant as a doctoral student to start in the Fall 2020 semester. This student will be mentored by me and will work as a research assistant in my 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 me, I recommend visiting my lab website: DEAR Lab website

For further information on the UNT Behavioral Science PhD Program, including faculty research interests and a link to the program page, please see the attached announcement. The deadline for applying to the Behavioral Science PhD Program is December 1.

Thank you for sharing this information.

Best,

Casey Guillot, PhD
