For more than 50 years, the Vrije Universiteit Brussel has stood for freedom, equality and solidarity, and this is very much alive on our campuses among students and staff alike.
At the VUB, you will find a diverse collection of personalities: innovators pur sang, but above all people who are 100% their authentic selves. With some 4,000 employees, we are the largest Dutch-speaking employer, in the private sector, in Brussels; an international city with which we are only too happy to connect and where (around) our 4 campuses are located.
Add to this our principle of free research - in which self-reflection, a critical attitude and an open, creative mind around scientific and social issues are central - and you have a university that is fundamentally groundbreaking and pioneering in education and research. In short: the VUB all over again.
Moreover, the VUB is a member of EUTOPIA, an alliance of like-minded European universities, all ready to reinvent themselves.
The Faculteit Psychologie & Educatiewetenschappen, Department Psychologie, Research Group No Large Research Group is looking for a PhD-student with a doctoral grant.

Het doctoraatsproject zal zich in hoofdzaak richten op de ontwikkeling, validatie en implementatie van het Psychological Referral Optimization algorithm (PRO).

Afhankelijk van het finale onderzoeksplan en jouw profiel kan het doctoraat één of meerdere van de volgende thema’s omvatten: longitudinale risico- en veerkrachtmechanismen voor psychische problemen en zelfbeschadiging; validatie en verfijning van PRO-risicogroepen; integratie van PRO met persoonsgerichte assessment en interventietoewijzing via PECAN (i.e., gepersonaliseerde probleemnetwerken); evaluatie van digitale preventiepaden; procedures voor getrapte triage en doorverwijzing; implementatie van PRO in schoolse, jeugd- en klinische contexten; en ethische en veiligheidsprocedures binnen digitaal onderzoek naar mentale gezondheid bij jongeren.
