Cognition: Open Access research that improves psychological health & welleing...

Strathprints makes available scholarly Open Access content by researchers within the School of Psychological Sciences & Health, including those based in Psychology.

Research at Psychology includes those working within cognition, better understanding neurological and neurodegenerative conditions (e.g. stroke, Alzheimer's disease), or mental health problems (e.g. anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation). Researchers incorporate a wide range of techniques in their investigations, including digital paradigms, surveys, electroencephalography (EEG), neuroimaging techniques (e.g., functional/structural magnetic resonance imaging), eye-tracking technologies, brain stimulation (using transcranial direct current stimulation) and motion capture.

Open Access @ Strathclyde

Open Access isn't always a piece of cake...

...which is why we are here to help!

Open Access can at first seem complicated. That is why our team is available on Twitter and Tumblr. These can be followed for the latest news and updates, or to post questions.

But it is also why we have developed a website providing detailed guidance for Strathclyde staff on some of the biggest issues which are likely to appear bemusing or bewildering to colleagues. Our Integrated Workflow for Publications and Datasets website provides guidance on:

Important concepts in Open Access, such the difference between Green and Gold Open Access;
Open Access policies relating to the Research Excellence Framework, Plan S or to specific research funders, such as UKRI, Wellcome, H2020, ERC, etc.;
Pure and Strathprints;
Copyright and licencing;
Making article processing charge (APC) payments for Gold Open Access articles and how eligible Strathclyde staff can apply for funds;
Taking advantage of Gold Open Access deals negotiated by the Library, such as 'read and publish' deals;
Important milestones in the publication lifecycle and how they overlap with Research Data Management;
...and much more...

Of course, any general enquiries about Open Access can be directed to our Open Access mailbox.
