- User Manual for the sign-up system (includes sections for participants/students, researchers, and instructors) [PDF]
As an alternative to participation in on-going research, students can obtain research credit by responding to a set of questions regarding the methodology involved in studies reported in psychology journal articles. Articles and set of questions can be found via the link below or via an instructor. Students should read an article, complete the set of questions and either attach or paste to an email message from his or her OHIO email account to psychstudies@ohio.edu . Students are expected to spend about one hour on each article and, thus, will receive one credit for each article and set of questions. IMPORTANT: Students may submit only two (2) article option forms per week (beginning/ending Saturdays at midnight) per course offering research credits. Each must be sent in separate emails (from OHIO account). Students planning not to participate in research, must plan ahead to obtain the credits desired.
- Possible Journal Articles
- Article Option Journal Summary Form (Note: Submit this form no more frequently than two times per week and at least by the last day of classes.)
Note: The Communications Studies Research Pool is a different site.
