(02) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position

Postdoc summary/title: Postdoc Position: The Politics of Care Work

The Department of Political Science of the University of Amsterdam is hiring a postdoctoral researcher in a research project funded by the Dutch Research Council (NWO-VIDI), titled “Breaking the Silence: Politics, Workers’ Rights and the Future of Senior Care in Europe” supervised by dr. Franca van Hooren.

European populations are ageing and the demand for senior care is rising quickly. Nevertheless, most workers in senior care face low pay and poor working conditions. Political interventions are required to improve the position of care workers. The aim of the “Breaking the Silence” project is to understand the political dynamics that contribute to (the lack of) such interventions.

As postdoctoral researcher, you will use quantitative research methods to complement qualitative research on care workers’ political agency, mobilisation and representation. Specifically, you will analyse existing survey data to study care workers’ political opinions and activities. In addition, you will conduct quantitative content analysis of the representation of care workers in political debates.

(12) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Postdoctoral Position on the Effects of Digital Media on Youth

Understanding the impact of digital media has never been more pressing with the fast-paced development of new technologies and AI-driven applications. Youth are considered particularly vulnerable to harmful effects of digital media, and concerns have been raised about the negative impact of digital media on youth’s attention and well-being.

However, researchers have struggled with the same conundrum since the rise of mass media more than 100 years ago: While anecdotal evidence documents the profound influence of digital media, empirical evidence is limited and points towards minimal effects. This discrepancy has hampered policy advice and has left the public confused about the true impact of digital media on youth.

This project proposes a fundamentally new view on media effects. The core idea is that media effects stabilize over time and are therefore difficult to detect with traditional methods. The project will test this new framework with innovative (controlled) field trials that employ a unique mix of subjective and objective measures. This project will test the impact of digital technologies on first-time users – that is, children who receive a smartphone or video game console for the very first time. Specifically, the project will examine to what extent acquiring a smartphone or game console changes the way children spend their time, and its impacts on attention and well-being.
