Intelligence Community Postdoc
Carnegie Mellon University, Oak Ridge Association of Universities
The Intelligence Community Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Program (https://orise.orau.gov/icpostdoc/) has announced a postdoc on improving human reasoning on complex topics:

“Probabilistic Visualization of Complex Arguments to Resolve Analytic Disagreements”

Prof. Simon Cullen (Carnegie Mellon University) is interested in supervising this research at CMU. The postdoc will be provided with offices in the Department of Philosophy at CMU.

* Appointments are for 24 months. The Program has the discretion to fund a third year.
* Annual stipend (which include funds for health insurance) is between $75,000 - $79,000
* Annual travel budget of $6,000
* Lab budget $5,000/year

Postdoc Eligibility
* U.S. citizenship required
* PhD. received within 5 years of the application deadline

Project description: Individuals and organizations often disagree in good faith. These disagreements can arise from different evidence, different probabilities assigned to that evidence, different evaluations of the importance of that evidence in the reasoning, and even in the methods for reasoning. Previous research has shown that visualizing (mapping) an argument can deepen understanding of the issues and help people who disagree reach a correct common understanding. But that research has focused on relatively simple arguments about hypothetical situations in which the subjects are not personally vested intellectually or emotionally. This research will explore ways to use similar approaches to complex, real-life reasoning, where subjects often are personally vested.

Each of the following is desirable but not necessary. (1) Reasoning (normative and empirical approaches), especially improving reasoning. (2) Argument Mapping. (3) Directing the development of software with intuitive GUIs that allow non-experts to express their arguments in Bayesian terms. (5) Basic social science stats. (6) R and/or SciPy/NumPy competence.
