Human-Computer Systems Research Group (Ref. DEC3) Human-Computer Interaction
The Human-Computer Systems Research Group is seeking to appoint a research
student to develop and evaluate an electronic emotion-sampling device to assist
call centre workers.
This focus of the research programme will be to produce a portable
emotion-sampling device to identify the negative or positive effects of
call-handling work on the user's emotional state.
The research project aims:
* to explore how users recognise, differentiate and verbalise their cognitions
and emotions;
* to explore what information (regarding emotion recognition and
differentiation) call-centre workers and trainers/supervisors would find useful
to assist with the regulation of emotions;
* to design and develop a portable, electronic, emotion-sampling device for the
collection of emotion reports.
Applicants should have either a first degree (minimum 2i) or a Masters degree in
one of the following disciplines (or similar):
* Human Factors / Ergonomics / Human-Computer Interaction
* Psychology , with a strong interest in HCI
* Computing, with a strong interest in HCI
