Prolific Academic Survey Alerts

Oh, that's really annoying! Hopefully you get it sorted.

Iive just had 19 surveys available but about 14 of them are Evaluating Web Based platforms all from Parnassus labs

Had anyone done them yet? I've avoided them all due to the need for new emails but no matter how many times I log as not interested they just reappear

I tried one and it failed part way through as it required me to download and submit something, I couldn’t find the download option. I messaged the researcher and heard nothing. Also the one email I managed to create and use is now bombarding me with emails, even though I clicked all the ‘no emails’ button.

You could try blocking the researcher if you're confident you don't want to do anything they offer.

Just saw the previous posters experience.

I didn't want to block if suitable but I'm assuming your need to be creating a new email for each survey which seems crazy.

I checked my available studies this morning and noticed I had £80 more than expected in my Prolific account. I didn’t get a message about it but one of my Ai projects paid out an unexpected bonus. So that was nice.

that’s a pleasant surprise. What sort of study was it? I’ve not been doing much at the moment keeps getting in the way, but I do need to get back into it again.

it was that Ai project that I passed the qualification for a while ago. There were only a few studies available but they had the highest hourly rate I’ve had on Prolific so I was surprised they paid an extra bonus. It ended up being $50ph with the bonus and they weren’t the specialised topics.

Has anyone had a 'speeding notice' on Prolific. I have never had this before, and I am sure I have not been speeding through any surveys. Unfortunately it doesn't say which survey it was.

no, I just had a survey rejected for doing it too quickly. So now if I think it I’m whizzing through although I always do pay attention and deliberately slow down and just have a bit of a rest in between answers sometimes. At least they gave you the warning rather than just rejecting.
