Membership survey We want to hear from you! To plan for the future of the PSA, we have launched a Network Motivation Assessment Survey (https://www.soscisurvey.de/PSA_NMAS/). This survey will take 15-20 minutes to complete, but will help shape the future of the PSA.

Results will be shared with the network. If you have any questions about the survey, please contact Hasan Sharifian at hasan.sharifian@ut.ac.ir or in Slack.
