New Projects 2024-2025
Please find below some of our research projects for our Psychology students at universities across Scotland (and sometimes further afield). We rely on participation from all walks of life and hope very much that you will take part in our research. This site is updated every few days and your participation is a really valuable part of the training for our students and will help them to be more skilled researchers in the future. Thanks!

Exploring Student Perceptions: Lecture Recordings, Video Impressions, and Mental Health Attitudes
We are looking for university students who are at least 16 years of age to take part in a study examining perceptions and usage of lecture recordings, impressions of a brief pre-recorded video lecture and attitudes toward individuals with schizophrenia. At the end of the study, you will have the option to enter a prize draw to win one of ten £20 Love2shop vouchers (UK use only).
If you would like to take part, you will be asked to complete an online questionnaire that should take no more than 30 minutes to complete. During the questionnaire, you will be asked to watch a brief pre-recorded video lecture lasting ~5 minutes. Please note that some questions touch on sensitive topics related to mental health, which could be upsetting.

Everyday competencies and mental health in University undergraduates
Academic challenges are probably less difficult than negotiating everyday life events! We are interested in asking undergraduate students who are 18 and over about these everyday challengs in an online survey that will take approximately 8-10 minutes.

Characterizing the psychologically rich life: Personality traits, daily activities, and goal pursuit
The purpose of this project is to better understand the relationship between personality, activities, and well-being. You will be asked to fill out self-report questionnaires online. These questionnaires will be about your personality, well-being, and motivation for pursuing particular activities. Demographic information (i.e., age, gender, ethnicity) will also be asked.
