Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Computational Modeling of Digital Education Data Universität Tübingen in Germany

PhD opportunity in computational motivation at Justus Liebig University Giessen , working with Franziska Brändle on questions in computational cognitive neuroscience , intrinsic motivation , and effort-based behavior. The project asks why some tasks are so engaging that people spend free time on them, why people voluntarily do frustrating activities, and why effort is avoided in some situations but actively sought in others. The work will use computational modelling and large-scale naturalistic ...
