Assistance and support for scientific research
Are you faced with a large scale research project and/or a logistically more complex study (multicenter, longitudinal and patient research)? Then we are there for you! Our employees are involved in scientific research on a by-project basis. They assist with the logistic design of your research project and have experience with the practical execution of scientific research.
Test subject contact, logistic processes and more
RSD has ample knowledge of and experience with test subject contact (recruitment, motivation, specialist tests), logistic processes and data acquisition and modeling. Also, within the department a number of universal applications have been developed that can be widely applied during research. We also play a major part in GGZ academisation.

Test Subject Database
If you are involved in internal research within the Faculty of Psychology and Neuroscience, then you can make use of our Test Subject Database. This database hosts details of healthy persons of 18 years and older who have voluntarily submitted themselves for test subject research. Test subject selection can be done using different characteristics. Have a look at the information available for participants in the Test Subject Database: www.maastrichtuniversity.nl/fpn/proefpersonen (Dutch only).
The establishment and maintenance of the database has been approved by the Ethical Committee of Psychology on 4 September 2012.
