Educational Psychology

The team of the research group of Educational Psychology broadly researches human experiences and behavior in formal and informal learning and teaching contexts as well as across the life span. The specific educational and developmental psychological research projects focus on questions reaching from basic to applied research that are often tackled interdisciplinary. The research group is responsible for teaching educational psychology, developmental psychology, and psychological research methods in the psychology and teacher education programs. Besides activities in research and teaching, the research group is an important link to the general public.

Lead: Prof. Stephanie Pieschl
