PhD Position in Environmental Storytelling for Climate Distress Intervention
4 weken geleden
Climate change has a profound impact on the mental health of young people worldwide, leading to emotional distress and a range of negative consequences. To address this issue, the University of Twente is seeking a PhD candidate to develop a hybrid storytelling intervention for alleviating climate distress in young adults.
The successful candidate will work on the following main objectives:
- To design and implement a climate distress intervention using environmental storytelling, which will help young adults build their narrative identity and sense of climate agency.
- To develop a hybrid storytelling group intervention where participants will encounter environmental storytelling triggers and discuss their experiences in a facilitated group.
- To collect and analyze both quantitative and qualitative data to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention.
- To produce guidelines for people interested in facilitating storytelling groups for climate-distressed young adults.
The PhD candidate will work closely with the BMS Lab and will be responsible for:
- Setting up experiments
- Performing statistical analysis
- Conducting qualitative and narrative analysis
- Working together with the BMS Lab
The ideal candidate will have a strong background in psychology or a related field, experience with mixed-methods research, and a good understanding of digital environments such as Virtual Reality. In addition, the candidate should have excellent writing and communication skills, as well as experience working in interdisciplinary environments.
The University of Twente offers a full-time 4-year PhD position with a qualifier in the first year, a gross monthly salary of € 2.770,- in the first year to € 3.539,- in the fourth year, excellent benefits, and a green campus with free access to sports facilities and an international scientific community.
