The Department's staff members undertake a wide range of research projects in their professional areas of interests. There are several labs dedicated to cognitive and physiological research. There are also 3 general purpose computer labs and 6 single subject cubicles equipped with Macs and PCs for running computer based experiments. Staff members also conduct workshops and undertake consultancies with government agencies and private organisations.

Ethics Review of Projects |
 |
|
 |
Student and staff projects require approval by the NUS Institutional Review Board (IRB) before they can commence. For more information and the relevant forms, see www.nus.edu.sg/irb.
Student projects that qualify for IRB review exemption may be reviewed by the Department Ethics Review Committee (DERC). Details can be found in this guide.
The DERC submission forms are:
- Application
- Protocol Amendment
Examples of the Participation Information Sheet and Consent Form can be found at the IRB website.
All IRB and DERC applications must first go through the DERC Chairperson. The weekly submission deadline for semester 1 AY08/09 is 1200 hrs on Friday.
The Consultancy Levy Fund (CLF) is open to members of NUS Department of Psychology, and undergraduate/graduate students as well as staff are encouraged to apply. The CLF is primarily intended to support student research projects (e.g., Honours theses, dissertations) but staff are also invited to apply if alternative funding for their projects is not available. Requests for up to S$1,000 will be considered by the Research Committee. Applications from past recipients of a CLF award will still be considered but may be given lower priority than those who are applying for the first time.
Student applicants should ensure that requests for alternative sources of research funding from the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) are sought alongside (if not prior to) this CLF application. Requests for items should not be duplicated in funding applications (e.g., the CLF application could request item A and the FASS application could request item B, but neither applications should request both items A and B). Please attach the CLF and FASS forms together and submit them concurrently to the Psychology General Office. The latest details of such alternative funding sources from the FASS can be found at the following links.
Staff applicants should ensure that requests for alternative sources of research funding have been sought prior to this CLF application, the details of which should be attached along with the completed CLF application form. Some sources of alternative funding schemes are described at the following link:

RESEARCH PARTICIPATION PROGRAMME |
 |
|
 |
As part of a good psychology education, it is essential to understand the methods and procedures for psychological research from the perspective of participants in such research as well as the perspective of the researcher. Towards this end, participation in psychology experiments has been a part of the psychology programme since it began at the National University of Singapore (NUS). This requirement is not unique to NUS but is, in fact, standard procedure in psychology programmes worldwide.
At NUS, as is the case at many other universities, students can fulfill this requirement in two ways:
Students can opt to act as participants in staff and senior student projects and accumulate points (12 per module) by signing up for approved experiments.
All research would have been reviewed and approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) before any data collection can begin.
|
OR The RP coordinator can arrange for students to act as observers for two experiments before they write up two reports (c. 1,000-2,000 words each) about the logistics, design and procedure the experimenters were using. These reports will not affect your grade but will be marked solely on a satisfactory/unsatisfactory basis. To select this option you are required to notify the RP coordinator (email: psyks@nus.edu.sg ) latest by Friday, August 31, 2007. Thereafter, you are to contact Associate Professor Chua Fook Kee (email: psycfk@nus.edu.sg) from the Department who will arrange for these experiment observations.
|
Students under the age of 21 as of 1 January 2007 are required to obtain parental consent before participating in the programme. Please note that this is a legal requirement and not a departmental requirement. All RPs who are under the age of 21 would be required to download and complete 2 copies of the consent form.
Keep a copy with you at all times and present it to the experimenter before the start of your experiment.

HEALTH PSYCHOLOGY RESEARCH GROUP |
 |
|
 |
The Health Psychology Research Group is engaged in studies of psychological and social factors in physical illness with a specific focus on coronary heart disease. Recent studies have examined the roles of anger/hostility and social support in cardiovascular responses to stress comparing these responses between ethnic groups in Singapore using both experimental and ambulatory methodologies. Other studies have been concerned with job stress and coping as well as the use of psychosocial interventions for reducing cardiac risk. A number of our projects have been conducted in collaboration with staff from the Behavioral Medicine Research Center, Duke University as well as the Department of Community, Occupational and Family Medicine, NUS, the National Heart Centre (Singapore) and the Police Psychological Unit, Singapore Police Force.
Projects
- Stress and cardiovascular reactivity among Singapore police officers
- Ethnic differences in cardiovascular reactivity in Singapore and India
- Sex roles, context and ambulatory cardiovascular responses
- Anger, social support, and cardiovascular responses to laboratory tasks
- Use of a psychosocial skills building workshop with patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting
- Ethnic differences in nocturnal blood pressure dipping using 24 hour blood pressure and impedance monitoring
- Relationship of genetic markers to ambulatory cardiovascular responses
