This exciting opportunity has arisen for a research trainee to join our research group in the Department of Psychology at the University of York. The successful candidate will have the chance to work on a high-profile project funded by the ERC Starting Grant, addressing three broad research questions: What inferences people make from membership in social groups?

As a research trainee, you will play a vital role in the day-to-day running of the project, including preparing study materials, collecting and analyzing data, and contributing to the dissemination of findings.
