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

[John Anderson]

We have a renewed opportunity for 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.
