The Chair of Organizational Behavior
(Department of Management, Technology and Economics (D-MTEC)) has an opening for a Postdoctoral Researcher/Scientific Collaborator (Oberassistent).
Project background
Our chair investigates social behaviour, including goal-pursuit processes, social perception, and leadership. Much of our research examines how the experience of social power, mindset priming, and affect influence these processes.
Our approach integrates theory and methodology from social-cognitive psychology, organizational psychology, and psychophysiology. To address our research questions, we conduct laboratory, online, and field research using self-report measures, computer tasks, behavioural coding, eye-tracking, and psychophysiological methods such as electroencephalography (EEG) and electrocardiography (ECG).
