[ACT-R-users] Post Doc Position/Synthetic Student Models

[John Anderson]

There is a post-doc position available at CMU in the Synthetic 
Student Model project.  The goal of the project is to create 
synthetic student models in the ACT-R architecture that can predict 
the outcome of instructional manipulations.   The post-doctoral 
responsibilities will involve some opportunistic combination of 
modeling and empirical research (behavioral and fMRI imaging).

Responsibilities of the postdoctoral researcher include experiment design
and supervision, data analysis, development of cognitive models, and
manuscript preparation and presentation. Requirements include a Ph.D. in
cognitive science, computer science or psychology with cognitive modeling
experience, preferably but not exclusively using the ACT-R cognitive
architecture, and research interests in high-level cognition and
human-computer interaction.
