Please see below for details.

Associate Research Scientist at Educational Testing Service (ETS) -- Princeton, NJ



ETS Research & Development has an opening for an Associate Research Scientist in the Cognitive Science Research Group, within the Cognitive, Accessibility, and Technology Sciences Research Center. The CogSci Group, currently with 16 members, investigates, develops, and applies cognitive science theories and methods to solve educational assessment problems. We collaborate on a variety of internally and externally funded research agendas around innovative student and teacher assessment capabilities, including game- and simulations-based assessment. We conduct interdisciplinary assessment research from a variety of perspectives within the cognitive sciences, spanning cognitive psychology, education, computer science, educational technology, and artificial intelligence. In partnership with teams of psychometricians, statisticians, validity theorists, computational and applied linguists, IT developers, assessment developers, and other cognitive scientists from across ETS, we create, develop, and maintain valid, innovative, technology-enhanced assessments to assess complex competencies for educational and workforce contexts.



We are recruiting a cognitive scientist with expertise in the areas of cognitive task analysis, experimental design, and cognitive modeling, especially as applied to problem solving and interpretation of sequential data (e.g., verbal protocols, interaction logs, eye tracking, multi-modal data) in a variety of domains. Because of the CogSci group's emphasis on interactive, online assessments, we are particularly interested in candidates that also have expertise in human-computer interaction, especially user experience design. Useful additional skills include some form of programming, particularly as it applies to prototyping or developing computational cognitive models.
