Varianten
In this specialisation you will obtain in-depth knowledge of topics within the broad context of self-regulation of health and illness.
Topics covered in this two-year research programme include: stress, symptom perception and illness, the dynamics of behavioural change, and coping with (chronic) disease. You will gain knowledge of a broad variety of methods and techniques, such as clinical trials, neuroimaging, and longitudinal survey or intervention studies. In addition, it is possible to qualify for the post-master training in health care psychology.
Psychology (Research): Cognitive NeuroscienceThis specialisation focuses on the investigation of the psychological, computational, and neuroscientific bases of human cognition by means of mind and brain research.
This two-year master's programme has a strong hands-on approach with numerous practical courses. You will play an active role in ongoing behavioural and neuroscientific research. This research will partly be undertaken within the interfaculty centre for interdisciplinary research on brain and cognition, the Leiden Institute for Brain and Cognition (LIBC). The programme offers a thorough training in the methodological and practical skills necessary to carry out scientific research on human behaviour. You will have ample opportunity to get in touch with and work with top researchers and excel in the area of your choice. In addition, you will be trained in a multi-layered, theory-driven approach to processes of self-regulation.
Psychology (Research): Developmental PsychologyThis specialisation offers a theoretical background to provide the varied knowledge-base needed for a thorough understanding of emotional and cognitive development across childhood and adolescence.
In this two-year research master's programme you will gain hands-on experience with various assessment procedures: self-report, behavioural observation, experimental manipulations, psycho-physiological assessment (skin conductance, heart rate, cortisol, etc.), EEG, and fMRI. The multi-method approach in the training programme is realised in the context of four research programmes.
Psychology (Research): Social and Organisational PsychologyIn this specialisation you will gain in-depth knowledge of a broad range of research domains, all concerning the way people's social environment influences thoughts, feelings, and behaviour.
This two-year research programme focuses specifically on processes within and between groups. Examples of theory development and research in each of these areas are conflict management, leadership, social dilemmas, diversity, stereotyping and prejudice, individual and group decision making. After graduation, relevant professional fields could be organisation and management in particular, but also economic behaviour and environmental issues. During your training you will be actively involved in an ongoing research programme.
