About this position
Örebro University is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher in psychology within the Department of Behavioural, Social and Legal Sciences. The project is centred on anger-related problems, with a focus on health consequences, emotion regulation, and psychological treatment.
The postdoc will join the CHAMP research environment, where the work is embedded in a larger international collaboration involving Örebro University, Karolinska Institutet, and Stanford University. The research aims to identify physiological and psychological mechanisms underlying problematic anger, particularly suppressed anger, and to further develop emotion-regulation-focused treatments for this area.
The role combines work on data processing and synthesis with active participation in a treatment study. The successful candidate will help develop the research design, recruit study participants, analyse data, and take a leading role in publishing findings in international scientific journals.
The position is connected to a broad psychology setting at Örebro University, where research spans cognitive, developmental, social, health, and clinical psychology, and is organised through the LEADER and CHAMP research environments. Limited teaching in psychology courses may also be included.
