Internships📣 Internship Opportunity – Social Learning, Decision-Making & Computational Modeling

Hi everyone!
I’m looking for motivated and curious research interns to join me on an exciting ongoing project in social decision-making. If you’re interested in computational modeling, behavioral data analysis, or experimental design, this could be a great chance to get hands-on experience!
🔬 Project – Social Learning & Emotions

- Analyzing behavioral data from learning tasks
- Assisting with computational modeling
- Possibly helping design a new revised version of the experiment
đź•’ Start: As soon as possible
🛠️ You’ll learn:
- conduct an online behavior experiment
- Basics of computational modeling and Bayesian analysis
- How to combine behavioral, questionnaire, and task data
đź’ˇ You might be a good fit if:
- You’re a student in psychology, neuroscience, cognitive science, or a related field
- You’re curious, independent, and want to learn by doing
- You’ve got some experience with R, Python, or MATLAB (or willing to learn)
- You’ve got some experience with Presentation experiment program(or willing to learn)
- Bonus if you’re familiar with online website like Gorrila and Prolific
đź“… Details:
- Start date: ASAP (flexible for the right person)
