Many students are involved in research, not only as researchers themselves, but also as participants or subjects. To assist in coordination of the studies and to access research opportunities, the Department of Psychology uses a computer system called SONA.

Research Participants - SONA. LSU Faculty, graduate students and undergraduate students all conduct psychological research to better understand and quantify human behavior.

We would like to show you a description here but the site won’t allow us.

SONA is TCU’s web-based system for scheduling research sessions. The first time you log in, you will be directed to complete a short study qualifier. The information gathered from this survey will be kept strictly confidential and will be used to determine if you qualify for specific studies.

We students at UofL, we feature a user-friendly online system (SONA) where you can read short descriptions of studies currently being conducted and sign up to participate all with just the click of a button!

Before logging into your Sona account, you should already have an account created and login information (i.e., your User ID and Password). Often, you can create an account, or request an account, simply by visiting your institution's Sona site and clicking on the appropriate button:

Sona is an online scheduling system used to record your research participation credit. You will go to the Sona website to find out what studies are being offered in a given quarter and use the site to sign up for studies.

HPR/SONA Participation. Students, sign up to participate in research studies! After you log in to the SONA system, you can view a list of available studies and any restrictions, sign up for studies that interest you, and track your progress throughout the semester.

How does research participation work? You will be using our Psychology Department’s SONA system to sign up for research studies – and to complete the Psychology Department Research Questionnaire at the beginning of the semester. The Research Questionnaire may make you eligible for particular studies, ones which require an Invitation Code.

Manage your participant pool with Sona Systems comprehensive research platform for universities. Universities using Sona Systems typically see participation rates increase by 25–50% and no-show rates drop to below 5%. Use Sona Systems for research in a lab setting, online studies, or a mix of both.
