Abstract: We discuss a definition of the Maslov index for Lagrangian pairs on $mathbb{R}^{2n}$ based on spectral flow, and develop many of its salient properties. We provide two applications to illustrate how our approach leads to a straightforward analysis of the relationship between the Maslov index and the Morse index for Sch"odinger operators on $[0,1]$ and $mathbbR$.
