About the Psychological Science Accelerator

The Psychological Science Accelerator (PSA) is a globally distributed network of researchers that pools intellectual and material resources to accelerate the accumulation of rigorous knowledge in psychological science. PSA operates on the principle that many of the world’s biggest challenges cannot be addressed by a single researcher or small team and leverages large-scale team science to tackle questions rooted in theory and real-world problems. Past PSA projects have examined, among others, the psychological impact of COVID-19 framing across cultures, moral dilemma judgments, and the effects of stereotype threat on academic performance. By joining this project, collaborators will join this network and benefit from its infrastructure, standards, and global reach.
