Classes
The VU takes place every Tuesday from 9.00-10.30 a.m. in HS G (Liebiggasse 5, 2nd floor).
The first session will be taking place on March 19th.We will check how many registered students turn up for the first session. For every student who does not turn up, another student will be registered from the waiting list. For those of you on the waiting list >25, there is usually no point in coming as it is unlikely that you will be able to attend.At the first meeting we will also give you all the information about the organisation of the seminar.Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The course serves to deepen the research approaches and fields of the research groups of Frank Scharnowski and Martin Voracek involved in the Master's specialisation "Psychological Foundations: Mind & Brain".The respective research group leader will present current research questions and topics in their field of research, which will be analysed in depth using specialist literature. Exemplary topics are: Neuroimaging, neurofeedback, automated exposure therapy, research synthesis (meta-analyses and systematic reviews), metascience/meta-research (research about research & researchers), open science, methodological reform & credibility revolution in psychological research.The Master's students should gain a deeper insight into research topics that can be worked on and supervised as part of the Master's specialisation "Psychological Foundations: Mind & Brain". The overarching purpose of the course is to enable those students who take the Master's specialisation "Psychological Foundations: Mind & Brain" to subsequently (from the current semester onwards) decide on their own topic for their Master's thesis.There is feedback, e.g. from the lecturers on the homework submitted.
