Mass testing
Mass testing occurs at the beginning of each fall and spring semester, and is an opportunity for those doing research with the pool to screen participants for particular characteristics. The Participant Pool Coordinator will provide information to faculty before each semester about the mass testing procedures. All experimenters wishing to participate in mass testing must receive approval by the Participant Pool Coordinator. Dr. Rosnick is currently the participant pool coordinator. Please feel free to contact him if you have any questions about using the participant pool.
