Prolific Academic Survey Alerts

I don’t think I asked that many. I would’ve carried on, but I got annoyed with it for warning me. 🙄 maybe it was the AI struggling that was the issue.

There is a $30 AI study up - its one of the previous formats for which I thought the project had ended. Only 200 places though if anyone is around to grab one.

Today, after over three years, and a 100% approval rate across 1600 studies, I got my first rejection.  The study involved playing melodies on an instrument by ear.  Singing was not allowed so I dug out my recorder and played that.  It's taken them a couple of weeks, and now they've said I was "singing".  I'm furious!

Challenge it? 

I messaged the researcher who replied saying it was an admin error and they had "now accepted this response".  However, I still don't think I've been paid.  My Prolific balance is still the same as when the study was showing as rejected.  I've asked them to clarify that, but tbh it was the rejection that was bothering me more.

I emailed the researcher and said I'd had to abandon the survey as it went way over time and I couldn't submit correctly at the end. I submitted with Nocode, and have been paid.

Estate Planning Software Survey

Anyone else fail an attention check in this one and were asked to return?  I'm confused though as I clicked the link provided rather than the submit button as it had the code at the end, but was then able to use the back button to review my answers to the survey and there were no attention checks I could see.
Very odd, I did return but I have messaged to ask for confirmation of the attention check and why I failed. Waste of my time anyway.

I returned this one as it required me to log into my with my personal email in order to proceed.

Did it refuse your Prolific email?  I have always had mine accepted in circumstances where a study asks for it.

Has anyone actually got any referral bonus. I had an E.mail about it but when I looked at my dashboard it said no referrals available?

Mine says unavailable as well. I’m presuming that’s because they have too many people on the waiting list at the moment.

I have used my Prolific email in the past, but this one would only accept a personal google account (with a message to say it was ‘safe to give this information’ or something similar). I did report it.
