Dear connectionists team,

Cultural and contextual differences in picture perception: building an ecological model of human visual perception

Full time PhD funding available for February 2017 start

For further details contact Dr P. Rentzelas (Panagiotis.rentzelas at bcu.ac.uk<mailto:Panagiotis.rentzelas at bcu.ac.uk>) and Dr E Mavritsaki (Eirini.mavritsaki at bcu.ac.uk<mailto:Eirini.mavritsaki at bcu.ac.uk>).

Short description: The proposed postgraduate research project aims to investigate the cross-cultural differences on visual attention. This will be achieved by employing a ground breaking research methodology that will involve social and cognitive psychology research techniques and the use of EEG and eye-tracking equipment. This approach will enable the more detailed understanding of the underlying brain processes on human visual perception and its cross-cultural and ecological differences.

Applicant requirements:
The ideal candidate should be a Psychology or Neuroscience graduate with a 2:1 or above BSc (Hons) with a strong interest and experience in behavioural and psychophysiological research. A postgraduate qualification in the area will be desirable.
