PhD Position: Contribution to the understanding of noise sensitivity and it= s underlying mechanisms Noise sensitivity is a personal predisposition accounting for an individual= 's reaction to noise. It plays a considerable role in capturing individual = differences in large-scale public-health studies on noise annoyance. In the= research literature, however, there is debate as to how noise sensitivity = should be conceptualized or measured. A three-year research project funded by the Fondation pour l'Audition (FPA)= aims to investigate this question in-depth by reviewing the pertinent lite= rature, setting up, running and analyzing laboratory experiments as well as= conducting surveys. The relevance of this work is the conceptual clarifica= tion of the concept and the designation of a reliable measure of noise sens= itivity with future applications in public health surveys. The PhD work will be carried out under the supervision of C. Marquis-Favre,= Senior Researcher at ENTPE (France), Prof. Karin Zimmer at the University = of Vechta (Germany), and Prof. Wolfgang Ellermeier at the Technical Univers= ity of Darmstadt (Germany). The candidate is expected to participate in the= research of all steps of the project, as well as in publication and commun= ication activities. Job location: at ENTPE (=C9cole Nationale des Travaux Publics de l'=C9tat, = member of the University of Lyon), Vaulx-en-Velin in the Greater Lyon area = (France) Salary will be consistent with the updated standards for this position at E= NTPE. The appointment period will be for 3 years (starting December 2022). The candidate is expected to hold a Master's degree in Psychology, Acoustic= s or any discipline linked to the project. Previous experiences in psychoac= oustics, psychological research methods, physiological measurement and stat= istical analyses are particularly appreciated, as well as good programming = skills (Matlab). Furthermore, candidates will demonstrate excellent communi= cation skills in English. The application will include the following documents: - Detailed CV - Grade transcripts of the Master course of studies - Application letter, detailing the applicant's motivation and prospective = contribution to the project - A recommendation letter by a former university teacher or work supervisor Send the full application in one file by e-mail to: catherine.marquisfavre@xxxxxxxx<mailto:catherine.marquisfavre@xxxxxxxx> ellermeier@xxxxxxxx<mailto:ellermeier@xxxxxxxx= mstadt.de> karin.zimmer@xxxxxxxx<mailto:karin.zimmer@xxxxxxxx> Deadline for application is September 11, 2022 Kind regards, C.
