We are looking for a researcher with an MA or equivalent degree for
the project "Group Interaction in High Risk Environments: Linguistic
Factors". This is a half-time position for two years.

Familiarity with pragmatics, especially speech act theory, and
conversation analysis is required; also, good knowledge of German.
Knowledge of aviation and aviation terminology is a bonus. The goal of
the project is to transcribe video recordings of cockpit communication
on simulation flights and analyze selected parts of it in terms of
their speech acts and conversational structure.
