Post Doctoral Position in Visual Cognition: University of Wales, 
Bangor, Psychology. 15 months from 1 April 2005 until 30 July 2006.

We are looking for someone with energy and know-how in visual cognition 
and computer programming.  The successful applicant will work on an 
exciting project that will apply cutting-edge research on visual 
attention and perception to consumer behaviour, especially branding and 
advertising. The project will involve the creative use of cognitive 
psychology in basic and applied settings. Experience in techniques of 
experimental perception and cognitive psychology is required — 
especially a solid working knowledge of experimental design, 
programming (e-prime or similar), and statistics. Programming skills 
(including web platforms) are a definite asset. Knowledge of marketing, 
advertising and branding would also be helpful but not necessary. 
Applicants must have a PhD in Psychology, or a related field.

The work will be conducted with Jane Raymond and James Intriligator at 
the Centre for Experimental Consumer Psychology and within the 
Cognitive Research Group of Bangor’s School of Psychology 
(http://www.psychology.bangor.ac.uk/). The school has an outstanding 
record of success in both teaching and research. According to national 
assessments, we rank among the top five UK Psychology departments for 
research (i.e. rated 5A on a scale of 1-5*). The School provides an 
active environment for research, both basic and applied. Situated 
between the beautiful Snowdonia National Park and the Irish Sea, the 
city of Bangor offers an exhilarating environment for work and leisure. 
Office and labs are new and equipment is state-of the art.

This post is available pending final budget approval.  At this time 
please send an expression of interest and a CV to Prof. Jane Raymond.

call for application will be made soon.
