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

There's a study on PA at the moment which pays £1.50 but you need to give up facebook and instagram for a week. It'll be tough to get any takers for that one i think.

I could quite happily give up instagram for a week. I have an account but never could get my head around it. But FB? How could I comp without FB?

 

[Mountainways]

Yep, it's been there all day and no one is taking it up!

I don't even do this survey stuff but who would do all that for £1.50!!!!

Where is this referral code? Is it desktop only? Is for surveyors or the participants? I would appreciate the advice I'm completely lost

People post their own referral links on separate posts like Katy above. You answer surveys and get a reward in return.

Even I wouldn't do it for £1.50 [member=1]Jon[/member] so it must be shit.

What a piss take!

How much would you do it for? I've just been thinking, instagram I don't use regularly, but facebook I use mainly for social stuff, so I reckon £50 for me ;D

Prolific is having a fit today. I've received about 50 identical emails from them and now the site crashes every time I try to go on.

Yes I had that 30 identical emails this morning!
Now getting an error so must be a few problems today.

 

[Topaz]

I haven't had the emails, but I have had studies pop up that say I'm eligible but when I click on them it says that I'm not. Then when I click to go back to the dashboard I get an 'oops there's a problem' message. I think that the Gremlins are out to play today.

 

[amyjay]

I had 104 email from them! - most were for 2 bonus payments I had got. Wondered if I'd got lucky and got lots of bonus payments but alas not, but £3 in bonuses still isnt too bad.

 

[luckyj142]

Same thing crossed my mind. That is the kind of email bombardment I wouldn't mind!

Just wondering what phone apps people use to monitor prolific academic for new studies? I tried Web alert but I really don't know if it works. Thanks

 

[Mountainways]

Really annoyed Ive just completed the study "Discounting and Choice", took me about 15 minutes, only to find I was timed out.. The limit was twelve minute which doesn't seem reasonable given there are multiple fairly tasks and memory exercises in between tasks, and one section alone had 27 questions. Think I will message the creator and suggest they adjust the time limit.

 

[Christine2]

I emailed Prolific yesterday concerning time out issue...I honestly don't know why I was timed out....so annoying, waiting for them to get back to me with their findings, sometimes it is impossible to read all instructions, concentrate and give quality answers in the given time

 

[Mountainways]

Well credit to the researcher, I got in touch, they agreed it was an error and will credit me for the study.
