Prospective students

Sabine welcomes applications from strong students for the upcoming admissions cycle. She particularly strongly encourages applications from individuals who are interested in executive function and self-regulation in early childhood, or cognitive development more broadly. If you are passionate about one more more of the following, this will be considered a huge plus!: applying experimental research and quantitative methods to answer questions about child development, systematic review and meta-analysis, R programming, and transparency and reproducibility in psychological science. If you think you may be a good fit with the lab’s interests and expertise, and are interested in the possibility of becoming a graduate student in the lab (at the MA or PhD level), please email Sabine at sdoebel [at] gmu.edu with an introduction to yourself, including a few words about your background, interests and goals.
