Postdoctoral researcher in: Evidence Synthesis (1.0 FTE)
Offer DescriptionPreventing and measuring radicalisation: An evidence synthesis
The current project is premised by a pervasive, methodological challenge in the study of radicalisation: the validity and reliability of efforts to measure radicalisation continue to be of poorer quality than those found in other research areas. Not only does this inhibit the development of explanatory theories of radicalisation, but it hinders efforts to counter or prevent the phenomenon more broadly. To address this problem, the current project brings together subject-matter experts on radicalisation and counter-terrorism as well as methods experts in prescriptive and predictive data analysis and psychometric testing to contribute to two, Campbell Collaboration systematic reviews and meta-analyses on the topics of radicalisation measurement and school-based radicalisation prevention.The findings from these syntheses will be incorporated into a report for counter-terrorism policy-makers and practitioners on the topic of radicalisation prevention. In culmination, these work packages will allow the team to determine the extent to which schools-based interventions are effectively targeting radicalisation, and whether the measurement instruments are of sufficient quality for the task at hand. This knowledge will be particularly relevant for practitioners tasked with piloting or measuring the effects of preventative interventions, as well as those entrusted to develop effective counter-terrorism policiesThe Postdoctoral Researcher will be a key member of the team, contributing their expertise in scale development and validation to the psychometric systematic review followed by the intervention systematic review.Key responsibilities
