Forschungspraktika und Tutorate

Es gibt sowohl phylogenetische als auch ontogenetische Hinweise darauf, dass die menschliche Wärme- und Kälteregulierung eng mit sozialen Beziehungen verknüpft ist (siehe z.B. auch huddling bei Pinguinen). In einem Experiment untersuchen wir derzeit, inwiefern eine Stimulierung des thermalen Systems das soziale Erleben und Verhalten positiv beeinflussen kann.

Zur Unterstützung unseres Experimentes (aktiver Part in einem Stress- und in einem Beziehungstest) suchen wir ab sofort eine*n Forschungspraktikantin*en, der*die jeweils morgens (9.00 Uhr bis 11.00 Uhr) möglichst flexibel ist.
