Dear Colleagues,
We all recently received the message below from Fred Wolinsky
concerning
the good news of an increase in page numbers in the Journal of
Gerontology: Social Sciences. You will be pleased to know that this
increase extends to the Journal of Gerontology: Psychological Sciences
as
well. We are grateful to the GSA for their wisdom and foresight in
recognizing this critically important medium of our field. I believe we
shall all benefit from this increase in page allocation and encourage
you
to submit your very best work to the Journals of Gerontology.

To all undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral students in Division
20:
The organizers of the 1998 Cognitive Aging Conference (CAC) have given
us permission to have a Division 20 informational booth at this year's
conference. This provides us with a wonderful opportunity to advertise
our division and recruit new members. It also provides students with
the chance to get involved in division activities by volunteering to
work at the informational booth.
Volunteers will answer questions about the division (e.g., benefits of
being a member, costs of membership, etc.), recruit new members, and
meet other researchers interested in aging. As a special incentive, all
volunteers will be entered into a free CAC tee-shirt raffle. The lucky
student who wins the raffle will be awarded the tee-shirt at the end of
the conference.
Show your pride and support for Division 20 by becoming a volunteer!
The
formal program begins on Thursday, April 23 and ends on Sunday, April
26. As was the case in 1996, CAC is being held in downtown Atlanta,
Georgia. If you would like more information or would like to sign up to
become a volunteer, please email Lisa Jenkins, the Division 20
Postdoctoral Representative at ljenkins@artsci.wustl.edu or call (314)

Dear Colleagues: We have at 2 to 4 openings for interested
undergraduate
assistants on two large research projects. Please distribute this
announcement in your undergraduate classes, and to graduate student
colleagues who might know of interested undergraduates.
Positions 1 and 2: Collaborative Cognition and Aging: A Pilot Study
- Student assistants are needed for a study funded by the National
Institute
on Aging, examining problem-solving in older adults. Participants solve
everyday problems individually and with a partner while being
videotaped.
Participants will be tested on campus, and at selected other sites in
the
Detroit metropolitan area.
- Potential duties include data collection, transcription and coding of
videotapes, and data entry.
- Full and part-time positions are available. Positions are anticipated
to
continue throughout the summer and fall semesters.
- Applicants should (1) have a GPA of 3.0 or better, (2) enjoy careful
involvement with many aspects of the data collection process, (3) be
interested in research, and (4) be able to provide their own
transportation
when necessary.
Interested students should contact Jennifer Margrett, of Wayne State
University's Psychology Department and Institute of Gerontology, at
(313)
871-5045 for more information.
=======
Positions 3 and 4: The ACTIVE Study: Providing training to older
adults.
- Student assistants are needed for a second study funded by the
National
Institute on Aging. This is a major national clinical trial, which is
expected to continue until at least the Fall of 2001. Student
assistants
could expect up to 1.5 years of continuous employment on this project.
- Duties include coding of participant data forms, data entry and data
management, and occasional telephone survey involvement.
- Part-time positions (20 hours/week) are available, although full-time
work
may be available for six weeks during Summer 1998.
- Applicants should (1) have a cum. GPA of 3.0 or better, (2) enjoy
careful
involvement with many aspects of the data collection process, (3) be
interested in research, (4) have good telephone skills, and (5)
demonstrate
substantial speed and accuracy in data entry tasks. A typing test will
be
administered, although all typing speeds in excess of 20 WPM will be

WANTED: Reviewers for Division 20 Student/Postdoctoral Research
Award Submissions
As you are probably aware, Division 20 is once again sponsoring a
student research award competition. This year, the submissions for
awards are due on May 22. As in years past, we are asking
for volunteers to help the Committee in reviewing submissions.
Volunteers will receive from 1 to 6 submissions (the more
volunteers, the smaller the load!) around the beginning of June, with
reviews being due about 3-4 weeks later. The reviews themselves
consist of ratings on a number of dimensions along with a short
commentary. If you are willing to participate as a reviewer, please
send me an email (hess@poe.coe.ncsu.edu) to that effect ASAP.
Include in your email your mailing address (for express mail) and a
list of content areas in which you feel competent to review
submissions.
Please consider helping. The student awards program has been very
popular and successful, but its continued success depends upon
your assistance.
Thank you in advance!

Dear Colleagues,
We are interested in utilizing a measure of knowledge
of dementia -- its symptoms, ways of dealing with
behaviors associated with it, etc. -- as part of our
in-service training of nursing assistants/nurse aides
in our long-term care facility. I was hoping that I could
get some feedback/recommendations regarding measures
that have been used for this or similar purposes in
other facilities or with similar groups of caregivers.
If you have information on such measures, including
references, where to obtain copies, etc., please

POST-DOC Opening in Cognitive Psychophysiology.
The NIMH Training Program in Cognitive Psychophysiology in the
Department of Psychology, and the Beckman Institute, at the
University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign will have an opening
for a post-doctoral trainee, beginning August 20, 1998. The
appointment is for the period of one year, renewable to two.
The rate of pay is at the NIMH determined scale, and depends on
the year at which the Ph.D. was awarded. Trainees must be
citizens, or permanent residents, of the United States.
Our program is designed for psychologists who have not been
trained in psychophysiological techniques and who are interested
in incorporating the measures and concepts of Psychophysiology,
and Cognitive Neuroscience, in their research. Trainees in the
program have had their primary interests in virtually all areas
of Psychology: Cognitive, Aging, Clinical, Developmental,
Engineering Psychology, Social. Trainees participate in the
research programs of one, or more, of the program faculty,
participate in a weekly program seminar and partake of the very
rich offerings in the Department of Psychology, the Beckman
Institute, and the campus-wide interdisciplinary programs in
Neuroscience and in Cognitive Science.
The program faculty includes Marie Banich, Neal Cohen, Michael
Coles, Emanuel Donchin, Susan Garnsey, Wendy Heller, Art Kramer
and Greg Miller all from the department of psychology as well as
