Postdoctoral Research FellowAbout the position

A fixed-term 100 % position is available at the University of Agder, Faculty of Humanities and Education, as a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow affiliated to the Department of Foreign Languages and Translation, for a period of three years. The position is located at the University of Agder's Kristiansand campus. The starting date is the 8th of January 2024.

The person who is hired will contribute to a research project within the Experimental Linguistics Research Group and its associated laboratory (ELL) run by Prof. Linda Wheeldon and Prof. Allison Wetterlin. The research project will be run in collaboration with Dr. Katrien Segaert (School of Psychology, University of Birmingham).

The research will employ speech analysis techniques to investigate proficiency in spoken language production in terms of utterance complexity and spoken fluency. A core aspect of the research will be to assess the impact of both healthy ageing and bilingualism across measures of language proficiency. To address these issues, the project will be exploiting a large and rich speech- dataset collected during the FAB project. The dataset comprises natural speech from a picture description task (see OSF project: https: // osf.io/shwcn/). A large group of participants (approximately 340) produced short descriptions these pictures. They were diverse in terms of age (20-85), socio-economic status, education level and ethnicity, and included both monolingual English speakers, and Norwegian-English bilinguals who described different scenes in each of their languages. For each speaker there are objective measures of language proficiency, non-linguistic cognitive processes, and also detailed information about the bilinguals' language profile.

Responsibilities

The successful candidate will be based at UiA in Kristiansand. The postdoctoral researcher (PD) will work to prepare and analyse the data set using speech analysis and statistical tools. They will be fully involved in determining the detailed theoretical questions to be addressed, and in the analysis and dissemination of the research. There is broad scope for the PD to determine many aspects of the project's direction, any of which will have important theoretical impacts. The PD will also create a publicly available Speech-across-the-lifespan database. This database will contain speech samples interlinked with information of relevant characteristics of the speech, including a transcription of each speech sample, as well as codes for relevant speech fluency and complexity measures (e.g. disruptions and hesitations) and linguistic markers (e.g. word frequency, length, syllables, morphemes). The position will support the career development of the PD by enabling the development of their research expertise in a theoretically and methodologically demanding project. The expectation is that the postdoctoral researcher will be the first author on several publications.
