Postdoctoral Research Position in Cognitive Science

vor 1 Tag


Hannover, Deutschland Georg-August-Universität Göttingen Vollzeit

**Postdoctoral Research Position in Cognitive Science (f/m/d)** with **TV-L E13 **, 100 % for 3 years. The position is linked to a project on the topic "Mechanisms, Capacities, and Dependencies: A New Theory of Causal Reasoning", led by Michael R. Waldmann and funded by the German Research Foundation (Koselleck program). The goal of the project is to develop a novel theory of causal cognition, integrating insights from Pearl's hierarchical causal inference theory with new theories of mechanisms developed in philosophy of science (the New Mechanism view). One of the expected outcomes is a new psychological theory that explains everyday causal cognition. The theory will be experimentally tested by investigating different causal models, mechanisms, and tasks in various content domains and populations (adults, children, non-human primates). Additionally, computational models of the theory will be developed and the role of mechanisms in psychological research will be analyzed. The project will bring together an interdisciplinary group of researchers from different fields of cognitive science. **Requirements**: The group will be located at the University of Göttingen but German language skills are not necessary. Residence in Göttingen is required. **Application** **Please note**:
