CENTRAL EXPERIMENTAL SERVER OF PSYCHOLOGY

The Central Experimental Server of Psychology (ZEP) is a joint project of the Faculty of Psychology.

The ZEP guarantees uncomplicated, uniform and data protection-secured recruitment of participants for psychological studies. The ZEP is based on the free software solution ORSEE.

Use as participant

If you use the ZEP as a participant and wish to register or edit your data, please follow this link.

Use as experimenters

The ZEP can be used for recruiting purposes by employees, scholarship holders,and student assistants of the chairs or research groups involved in the project (see account allocation concept). Students writing a final thesis (Bachelor's, Master's, or Diplomarbeit) can also apply for the use of the ZEP via a participating chair. For this purpose, a declaration of supervision by the chair is mandatory. Please send the complete and signed declaration to the ZEP representative at .

If you use the ZEP as an experimenter, please follow this link.

Getting started: documentation and tutorial

The use of ORSEE can be learned intuitively. Should questions arise, however, we would like to refer you to the exemplary documentation at this point. In addition, a short tutorial has been designed, which should make it even easier for you to get started using ORSEE as an experimenter. Furthermore, the participating chairs are listed below with their respective contact persons, and they are also happy to help you with advice and support.

Code of Conduct

All users of the ZEP undertake to observe the following principles when using the database:

- Anti-discrimination and equal opportunities -
The assignment of participants to studies is carried out independently of age, sex, origin, religion and sexuality, provided that there are no compelling theoretical reasons for selecting participants with regard to these characteristics for the respective study. This ensures that all members of the database have equal opportunities to participate in experiments.

- limited participant invites -
When recruiting participants, the number of invitations depends on the sample size. This means that not all persons stored in the database are always invited, but that invitations are only sent to a subset (maximum four times the required sample size) of the appropriate group of persons. This ensures that at least every fourth invited person can actually register for the experiment and that invitations are still perceived as relevant.

- transparency -
In invitation e-mails to studies, the inviting parties provide comprehensive information on the remuneration and scope of the study. They name the persons responsible for the study and provide an electronic contact address.

- Good scientific practice -
The studies follow the guidelines for good scientific practice
