I am recruiting a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow (Human-Computer Interaction/ Psychology/ related fields). Grade 7 (£31,076 - £38,183). Start date January 1st, 2017.

Summary of Job Purpose and Principal Duties
 
As a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow with expertise in Psychology, Human-Computer Interaction or a related field, you will work on a new project, TAPESTRY: Trust, Authentication and Privacy over a DeCentralised Social Registry, funded by the RCUK Digital Economy programme. Full details of the project are available here: http://bit.ly/1S4VLxG.  The post is for 3 years, starting on 1st January 2017.

The TAPESTRY project aims to investigate, develop and demonstrate transformational new technologies to enable people, businesses and digital services to connect safely online, exploiting the complex "tapestry" of multi-modal signals woven by their everyday digital interactions. The project brings together expertise in socio-digital interaction and psychology (University of Dundee); multi-modal signal processing, machine learning, Cyber Security and 5G technologies (University of Surrey); and interaction design (Northumbria University).

You will develop and test new theories around the establishment of trust in online contexts, with a focus on how it is informed by social identities and social norms. You will have expertise in the application of both qualitative and quantitative approaches – for example, through focus groups and surveys. Knowledge of social identities, social norms, trust and online behaviour is highly desirable.
