For the first time since 2016, the various psychological research institutes in The Netherlands have been subject to an external evaluation by a review committee of national and international scholars. The review committee was very positive about Dutch psychology as a whole and considered the research quality at the UvA Research Institute of Psychology to be “outstanding”.

Comments of the committee

The review committee concluded:

The quality of PsyRes research is admirable, as reflected in its publications, impressive grant acquisition, and the strong international profile of many of its staff. PsyRes is taking good initiatives to ensure that its research portfolio as a whole achieves a good balance between fundamental research and societally relevant research. The strategic aims for the next six years are detailed and appropriately ambitious, and the Committee therefore assesses the viability of the research unit to be high.”
