Post-Doctoral Associate in the Division of Science (Psychology) - Dr. Jennifer Sheehy-Skeffington

New York University: NYU - Global: Abu Dhabi: AD_Science: AD_Psychology

Location

Abu Dhabi, U.A.E

Open Date

Dec 16, 2024

Description

The Societal Psychology Laboratory led by Dr Jennifer Sheehy-Skeffington in the Division of Science, New York University Abu Dhabi, seeks to recruit a post-doctoral associate to work on research on the political psychology of ideology and inequality.

The successful applicant will join an active research program focused on the psychological foundations of ideological individual differences. Drawing on the perspective of social dominance theory, our lab’s work has explored the multifaceted origins of egalitarianism, from evolutionary pressures and heritable adaptive strategies to child and adult socialization, dynamic group interests, and broader societal factors such as ecological threat and resource distribution. We are now widening our focus from the tension between equality and hierarchy to that between inclusion and exclusion, and principles of communality versus proportionality in resource distribution. The post-doc will lead the development of survey and behavioral measures of such relational orientations, which can be applied in lab studies, economic games, twin studies, and longitudinal surveys, working with the lab PI and collaborators at Aarhus University and the University of Oslo.

Other research ongoing in the lab addresses the psychological consequences of socioeconomic adversity and how ideologies such as neoliberalism shape the sense of self and social relations. There is scope to adjust the precise project focus to fit with the expertise and interests of the successful candidate. The post-doc will join a vibrant social and political psychology research group at NYUAD made up of faculty, graduate students, post-docs, and undergraduate students.

Applicants must hold (or be close to completing) a PhD in social psychology or a related field (such as cognitive, experimental, developmental, or evolutionary psychology, or behavioral science). Applications are encouraged from PhD holders or graduating PhD students with a solid emerging publication record, a background in the study of ideology, inequality, intergroup relations, socioeconomic status, or economic inequality, and experience with experimental, longitudinal, and survey methods. Expertise in computational modelling, the analysis of longitudinal and multilevel data, working with administrative registry data, multivariate behavior genetics analyses, and/or natural language processing is a plus.

The terms of employment are very competitive and include housing, health insurance, and educational subsidies for children. Applications are open and will be accepted up until Friday 10th January 2025, with interviews held during week commencing January 13th. To be considered, all applicants must submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, a one-page summary of research accomplishments and interests, transcript, and details of at least 2 referees (no need to submit letters at this stage) to Interfolio.
