Ph.D.Student position on the development of the self in infancy

We invite applications for a Ph.D. student position in developmental science. The position will be part of a research project on the early emergence and development of the active self in infancy. It focuses on the behavioral indicators, the social correlates, and the neural basis of the emerging self in infancy. The project is part of a priority program of the German Research Foundation (DFG) on the active self (www.activeself.de) and is supervised by Prof. Markus Paulus. The project is located at the University of Munich (Germany). It is paid according to German salary scale TV-­‐L E13 (65%).

The project explores the basis of the self in early childhood. It involves measures of infants’ implicit self, toddlers’ self-­‐concept, assessement of parent-­‐child interactions, and the use of EEG or fNIRS to tap into neurocognitive mechanisms.

The position requires a master degree in psychology or a related discipline (e.g., cognitive neuroscience). Candidates should have experience or a strong interest in working with families and young children, and experiences in quantitative empirical research. Basic German skills (or a compelling motivation to acquire them in the first months of the project) are necessary in order to interact with the families. Experiences in the application of neurocognitive methods (EEG, fNIRS) are a big plus. The position requires good communicative and organizational skills, high commitment as well as profound English skills.

Application: Please send your application (including a full CV, copies of master degree diploma, detailed motivation letter, contact details of up to three academic references) to markus...@lmu.de in one PDF file. Further inquiries about the position can also be directed to Prof. Markus Paulus under the above mentioned email-­‐address. Please send your application by 20. September.
