Psychology Study Participant Manager (PSPM) is the online system that manages student participation in all research studies. This is useful to you if you are enrolled in a class (for example, Psychology 201) that allows you to fulfill course requirements by participating in research.

If you choose to participate in research to fulfill these requirements you must first complete a general screening to gain access to PSPM. This is done online and you will receive 1 hour of research credit for completing the survey. You will receive an email from your instructor in the beginning of the semester with the link to the survey. Once it is complete, you will be added to PSPM within 2 business days and you will receive an automatic email from the system explaining how to log in.

You can access PSPM at https://www.psych.uni.edu/pspm/olemiss. Detailed instructions for its use are located online in the student section. You can check which studies are available under the link for "choose study." Studies are continuously added over the course of the semester, so check back frequently.

If you forget your password you can email Dr. John Young (jnyoung1@olemiss.edu) who will see that your password is reset. A new password will be automatically generated and emailed to you. Type in this new password exactly as it is given: Remember that the reset password is case sensitive-- you must capitalize when it includes capital letter. Also, it is hard to tell the difference between a zero and a capital letter O. So if one doesn't work, try the other. Also, notice whether or not the password ends with a period. The period must be included if one is shown in the email that you receive. Another problem that students frequently encounter in logging into the system is entering their student IDs. This should be an 8-digit number (the last 8 digits from your ID card). People often include an extra zero before the number, which will not be recognized by PSPM and will not allow you to access the system.

If you have problems with the system, please check the website FAQ first. If you cannot find an answer there please contact Dr. John Young via email (jnyoung1@olemiss.edu).
