Sabbatical Dieter Baeyens: Reaching further: valorization of available research data and capitalizing on international collaboration

In terms of research resourcing: 1) Preparing a European COST application as PI, with multiple European partners: In this application we want to build on the insights of two doctoral projects that started under my supervision this academic year (as leverage to also weigh heavily on the content). An in-depth study of the literature, the writing out a research proposal and intensive consultation with European partners would be done in the Sabbath period. Linked to this, an active effort is made to organize study visits to the key partners to integrate new paradigms in the COST application as well to explore bilateral collaborations (cf. FWO senior and Lead Agency projects). 2) writing a meta-analysis within the domain of “Context stimulation to promote EF performance and development”. Most of my current research projects are within this domain situated; writing a meta-analysis would further emphasize my senior role as a researcher in the domain. In terms of deferred research activities: 1) Write an A1 publication first author on “Transitional care for young adults with ASD in Flemish healthcare”: The data for this paper were collected in particular a Marguerite-Marie Delacroix scholarship but the research assistant no longer reported within the project term. Since this research theme is not the focus of current PhDs, I see it as my task to pursue the self-report research results. 2) As an extension of Dorien Jansen's doctoral project  under my supervision, I collected by means of master's thesis research experimental data on effectiveness of the reasonable adjustment “taking the exam in a separate room” and “training of exam strategies to make optimal use of reasonable adjustments ”, this always among the target group of students with ADHD in higher education. Analyzing and writing out of these data as first author of A1 publications is goal in the sabbatical period.
