KnowlesLab - Psychology Research at QMU
Psychology, brain and behaviour research led by Dr Kristen Knowles at Queen Margaret University in Edinburgh, Scotland.
We do research with real-world impact based in the biological, cognitive and behavioural sciences.
We have some new research in the works and could use some help. If you're a male and have 20 minutes to spare we'd appreciate your responses! :)

We have quite a few live studies going on in the lab just now. If you're keen to see what kind of work we do, you might like to volunteer in an online study. If that sounds good to you, help us out here - it should only take about 20 minutes or so. 🙂
There are questions about UK politics, so you should live in the UK to take part, and should NOT be in Dr Knowles's first-year psych class. 👍
