Oxford Brookes University - Health and Life Sciences

Location: Oxford
Salary: £28,762 pro rata

We are looking for a post-doctoral research assistant in Psychology for an exciting opportunity to be involved in a project funded by Prevent Breast Cancer. The post is funded at two days (0.4 fte) a week for 10 months from 1.4.23.

Alcohol consumption has an established association with breast cancer (BCa), but awareness of this link is low. This project will extend our previous work on the topic and identify intervention content (information and other behaviour change techniques) that will increase knowledge about alcohol and BCa risk and support women to reduce their alcohol consumption. The project uses the Behaviour Change Wheel and COM-B (capability, opportunity and motivation) model and so experience of these frameworks would be highly desirable. The candidate will be responsible for liaising with a public advisory group with lived experience, running a three round Delphi study, data analysis and dissemination.
 
The successful candidate must have a good undergraduate degree (or equivalent) in psychology or related discipline, and have a post-graduate qualification (or be nearing completion). Substantial experience of undertaking independent research using quantitative and qualitative research methods is required.
