Wed Apr 14 13:30:23 EDT 1999


******************
The Applied Cognitive Program of George Mason University is searching for a
post-doctoral researcher skilled in cognitive modeling and cognitive
science. Current projects include building Integrated process models of
perception, cognition, and action.

The ideal candidate will have created one or more computational cognitive
models within a unified architecture of cognition (e.g., ACT-R, CAPS, C-I,
EPIC, or Soar) and will have compared the performance of his or her
model(s) to empirical data. (As we work primarily within an ACT-R
framework, we are especially looking for people skilled in ACT-R. However,
knowledge of other
computational cognitive modeling systems plus a willingness to learn ACT-R
will be considered.)

Additional factors that will be weighed but not required include
proficiency in LISP and proficiency in the design and analysis of
behavioral research experiments. Experience with eye tracking studies and
their data analysis are a plus. We expect that the successful candidate
will have a Ph.D. in Psychology or Computer Science but Ph.D.'s in other
areas can be considered.

SALARY RANGE: $24,000 to $30,000 per 12 mon

George Mason University is located in Fairfax, VA a short (about 15 miles)
drive from Washington, DC.

All queries should be sent to Wayne D. Gray at gray at gmu.edu. CV's,
publications, and statements of interests can be sent electronically or at
the address listed  below. Letters of reference are not necessary at this
time, but will be solicited later from candidates whose qualifications and
interests seem most appropriate. Applications will be reviewed beginning
May 3rd; applications will be considered until the position is filled.
