Job Description
The position is part of the ongoing NSF-funded project ‘Choice-induced biases in human decision-making’ in collaboration with the laboratory of Tobias Donner at the University Medical Center Hamburg, Germany. The goal of the project is to understand how decisions influence the memory of past (consistency bias) but also the evaluation of future evidence (confirmation bias) in human decision-making. The project employs a highly interdisciplinary approach that combines psychophysical and functional neuroimaging (MEG) experiments with theory and computational modeling.
Requirements
- Candidates from all backgrounds are considered. However
- a good theoretical/ computational background and experience in working with computer models and simulations is expected. Experience with the technical aspects of running psychophysical experiments is a plus. Above all
- however
- we are looking for candidates who are deeply curious about the theoretical principles underlying human decision- behavior.
