Welcome to the Participant Pool of the Cognitive Sciences!

The SONA participant pool is a web-based application for the participation in scientific studies of the Intra-Faculty Unit Cognitive Science (SBKW).

Every person above 18 years of age who is interested in supporting research in cognitive science is welcome to register. SONA is the central platform to find out about ongoing studies, book appointments and manage participation.

In some studies, participation is remunerated with money. The amount of remuneration depends on the task and the duration or frequency of participation.
Many studies offer credits (Versuchspersonenstunden) as remuneration. These are required by students of psychology, linguistics and sports and health sciences as part of their studies. In SONA, you can easily manage and document your own credits.

On the following pages you will find all information about the functionality of the SONA participant pool of the Cognitive Sciences.
