Dear Cognitive Development Society,

the Max Planck Research Group iSearch - Information Search, Ecological and
Active Learning Research with Children - at the Max Planck Institute for
Human Development,
Berlin, Germany, under the direction of Prof. Dr. Dr. Azzurra Ruggeri,
seeks applicants for a *PhD student on Active Learning and Theories of
Curiosity in Humans and Machines. *
Deadline is March 20th, after that applications will be considered on a
rolling basis.

The Max Planck Research Group iSearch - Information Search, Ecological and
Active Learning Research with Children takes an interdisciplinary approach
to study information
search, ecological and active learning from a cognitive developmental
perspective. We are looking for a candidate to join our lab, working on
theories of curiosity in children, humans and machines, starting in April
2021 (starting date is negotiable). This position is part of the bigger
project “Towards a Science of Curiosity” funded by the Volkswagen
Foundation and involving 3 PIs, 3 PhD students and a postdoctoral student.

The ideal candidate needs to hold (or expect by Spring 2021) a
diploma/master degree in Psychology, Cognitive Science or related
disciplines. Experience in using behavioral
observational and experimental methods both in the field and in the lab
setting with toddlers and young children is essential. Experience in
studying children’s information
search and active learning is desirable, as well as knowledge of behavioral
coding programs (e.g., Datavyu) and statistical methods and softwares
(e.g., R). The doctoral position will last until February 2024 with the
option of a one-year extension.

To apply, please read the attached information. For further inquiries about
the position, please contact Prof. Dr. Dr. Azzurra Ruggeri (
ruggeri@mpib-berlin.mpg.de) or the MPRG iSearch lab manager (
isearch@mpib-berlin.mpg.de).

Best,
Laura Ziemann
MPRG iSearch Lab manager
