given different production and audience design conditions. The projects fit in
research areas which are covered in other research projects in the department.

Requirements
For the two positions, we seek a candidate with a background in experimental
psycholinguistics, communication & information sciences, social sciences or some
related area, with experience in doing experiments, and (depending on the
project) a proven interest in one or more of the following area's: phonetics,
speech or writing production, discourse reference, multimodal reference,
audience design and alignment.

The PhD candidates have a (research) master degree in one of the aforementioned
areas, a strong interest in doing research, excellent writing skills and a good

area of the project will be part of the procedure.
