Social Psychology Research with Labvanced

Labvanced is a comprehensive social psychology research platform that enables researchers to design and run online and in-lab social psychology studies without coding. As a flexible social psychology experiment software and behavioral science research platform, Labvanced supports complex experimental designs, dynamic social interaction paradigms, longitudinal studies, and hybrid workflows. With tools for multimodal data collection, AI-mediated interaction, and real-time behavioral measurement, Labvanced provides an advanced, scalable solution for studying social cognition, interpersonal behavior, and group processes.

Supported Research Areas in Social Psychology

Labvanced provides a powerful, flexible social psychology research platform that allows researchers to implement diverse paradigms, methodologies, and experimental designs. From social cognition tasks to group interaction studies and perception experiments, the platform accommodates a wide range of research workflows while maintaining scientific rigor and secure data collection.

  • Social Cognition and Perception: Create tasks measuring impression formation, person perception, and attribution processes using dynamic visual, auditory, or text-based stimuli.

  • Attitudes, Persuasion, and Belief Change: Study how participants respond to persuasive messages, evaluate arguments, or shift attitudes under controlled conditions.

  • Social Influence and Conformity: Implement paradigms examining conformity, compliance, obedience, and peer influence using synchronous or asynchronous interactions.

  • Interpersonal Behavior and Communication: Build experiments analyzing social decision-making, cooperation, trust, and dyadic interaction with customizable communication interfaces.

  • Group Dynamics and Collective Behavior: Study leadership, coordination, identity, and cooperation within real or simulated groups using multi-participant setups.

  • Emotion and Social Affective Processing: Measure responses to emotional expressions, social cues, and affective stimuli in controlled experimental contexts.

  • Prejudice, Stereotyping, and Bias: Design tasks that assess implicit and explicit biases, stereotype activation, and intergroup perception.

  • Social Learning and Observation: Create observational learning or modeling paradigms using video-based stimuli or real-time interactive setups.

Social Psychology Experiment Examples in Labvanced

Animal Word Search Game

In this interactive 2-player game, participants compete against each other in real-time to find the most amount of words.

Ultimatum Game

In this interactive 2-player game, one player proposes a split of money and the other decides to accept or reject.

Core Features for Social Psychology Research

  • Behavioral and Social Task Builder: Design complex social judgment, persuasion, cooperation, and impression formation tasks without writing code, using flexible stimulus and logic tools.

  • Multimodal Data Collection: Combine surveys, reaction times, audio or video stimuli, chat interfaces, and behavioral data streams to create complex social-psychology datasets.

  • Multiplayer and Synchronous Interaction Tools: Run real-time multi-participant studies such as trust games, group decision-making, or social coordination tasks using built-in synchronous participant sessions.

  • Webcam Eye Tracking: Capture gaze, fixations, and social attention metrics during face perception, interpersonal interaction, or social-scene–processing tasks.

  • Longitudinal and Repeated-Measures Designs: Track changes in attitudes, social behavior, and group dynamics across multiple sessions using automated scheduling and mobile-based follow-ups.

  • Video Conferencing: Enable face-to-face interaction directly within the experiment to support dyadic communication, group discussions, or socially rich research designs.

  • Remote and In-Lab Flexibility: Run studies entirely online, in controlled lab settings, or through hybrid workflows that combine these approaches and utilize the browser, mobile app or desktop app for data collection.

  • Generative AI Integrations: Allow participants to communicate with AI agents in controlled interfaces to study persuasion, social influence, dialogue patterns, or communication strategies.

  • GDPR-Compliant Data Security: Labvanced provides encrypted data handling, secure consent workflows, and has undergone multiple security audits to ensure ethical and compliant research practices.
