Your signature didn't include your email address and it doesn't come up for
a reply so I'm responding on list.

SUNY Oswego has a couple of dedicated lab spaces. These rooms are used
primarily for our research methods and experimental courses (cognition,
perception, biopsych, learning and motivation) Two of those rooms are used
for non-computer laboratories and include "traditional" lab equipment. The
third is a computer laboratory  The non-computer rooms are usually assigned
to a class for the semester while the computer lab is reserved for specific
days (for my cognition class I usually reserve it for 6 laboratories).
Students who are running experiments associated with the experimental
classes or their own research can reserve these rooms as well. Faculty will
also use the computer lab for their research.

Oswego has approximately 8,000 students with about 400 psych majors

I hope this helps. Let me know if there is any other information you need

I am trying to convey the importance of "laboratory facilities" in
undergraduate psychology programs (particularly at small/medium liberal arts
institutions) to our administration and I thought it would be helpful if I
had some numbers to pass on.

Please take a moment and let me know if you have undergraduate laboratory
facilities for any courses in your departments such as Physiological
Psychology, Learning, Cognitive Psychology, Sensation & Perception,
Experimental Psychology, Statistics, etc.  These could be human or non-human
animal labs with computers and/or more traditional "lab" equipment such as
operant chambers. The main issue is having dedicated lab space for specific
Psychology courses.

I would also appreciate it if you could let me know how many undergraduates
are enrolled at your institution and how many majors you have.

You can respond to me off list and I will tally the results and submit them
back to the list.

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,

Rob Flint
