<p class="MsoNormal">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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Applicant requirements:</u></b> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">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.<o:p></o:p></p>
