<div>Michigan State University invites applications for a
post-doctoral fellowship in the area of computational cognitive
modeling, funded by a grant from the Office of Naval Research to
investigate cognitive effects of task interruption in complex dynamic
environments. The ideal candidate will have a Ph.D. in
Cognitive Science, Cognitive Psychology, or equivalent, with a strong
background in Lisp programming and software development for the
Macintosh, and experience developing computational cognitive models
using the ACT-R cognitive theory. Duties will range from
integrating the ACT-R simulator with an existing task environment and
developing ACT-R models of performance in that environment, to
contributing to theory development and designing and supervising
relevant empirical studies. The appointment is for one year,
renewable for a second, with an anticipated starting date no later
than Sept. 1, 2003. Review of applications will begin
immediately and close Feb. 15, 2003. Please send curriculum
