Surveys [OT] Earn money with the fantastic folks at Prolific Academic

When you get an alert you won't get another one until you visit the link to that specific tms thread. So that may be why? I was visiting the forum and not the thread itself and found the same.

Restaurant Review Experiment

I wonder whether the apparent lack of surveys is anything to do with this:

We're also aware that the studies are getting completed extremely quickly. We don't want all the studies taken by the same people who are quickest at refreshing the page so we're also working on improving the fairness of accessing the studies.

Putting aside the fairness issue, this would make sense: these sorts of studies are supposed to be representative of a larger population, and if they're all completed by TMS members then they'll be rather skewed! If the system doesn't live up to a high level of academic scrutiny then it won't last.

Of course, it might just be that we don't match the eligibility criteria (you can see all current studies by visiting https://www.prolific.ac/studies whilst being logged out), or that it just happens to be slightly slower at the moment.

Maybe that's it, thanks

In one sense it seems fair to share them out, in another it doesn't (mostly just because I'm fast at refreshing HAHA). Does make sense though and good to know, tahnks.

I've had 3 studies come up today but as soon as I click on them I'm told that they're full. I'm guessing there are a lot of other people waiting to pounce!

ETA: 5 minutes later I finally got to do one

I'm getting 'bad gateway error' message at the moment when I try and log in, could they be tinkering with things and is anyone else getting same message?
