Pool Contacts

The University of Zurich maintains various pools of test subjects for research purposes.
All university departments currently using Z-Pool tool technology are listed here.

The Department of Economics hosts the Laboratory for Experimental and Behavioral Economics, offering excellent infrastructure for experimental research. Our facilities include several specialized laboratories (BLU Lab, DeSciL, and SNS Lab) equipped with networked computers that allow simultaneous and interactive testing of participants, enabling large-scale behavioral studies under full experimental control.

Research conducted in our laboratories spans a broad range of topics in behavioral economics, including fairness and reciprocity, team decision-making, auctions and markets, labor and health economics, organizational design, neuroeconomics, and pharmacological and genetic studies.

Welcome to the LINGUISTICS Pool"!

The LINGUISTICS Pool is a hub for language science research, welcoming individuals from all walks of life and linguistic backgrounds. We actively seek participants from diverse backgrounds, including monolingual and multilingual speakers, heritage learners, and individuals with varying language proficiency. Depending on the study, we require participants of various ages, dialects and cultural experiences. This enables our research to reflect the true complexity of human communication, rather than focusing on a narrow demographic slice of society. Whether you speak one language or many, your unique linguistic profile can contribute to our understanding of how the brain processes, learns and uses language in the real world.  You can find an overview of current research projects from the LINGUISTICS Pool on our website (available only in German)
