    Well that's a bummer!!!

    I suppose we will just have to wait for a new extension update for PA Assistant...

    Kadauchi (the guy that wrote PA Assistant) is currently working on a fix and hopes to get it released tomorrow:)

    Hi,

    Why is it that sometimes a study is available at it says at times 63 more spaces left or even 201 and when i click to reserve a message pops up saying the study is either unavailable or full?

    Just has a similar issue with the one posted above. The message was posted with 55 places remained. I tried reserving when there was 63!

    1. You either do not meet the demographic or

    2. You are not quick enough to reserve a place...you have to be quick!

    This one asked 3 questions and then jumped to the end with no code given. Hope they pay up because it felt like I was screened out.

    2nd reply from researcher admits she rejected me because of my answer to question 3. This breaks the rules that require studies should not be rejected based on responses.

    I've emailed the researcher for the 3rd time. Anyone know how I can report this?

    Go to the Prolific website, click on SUPPORT (top right) - then on drop-down, click “problem with a study”. They are very good at Prolific and hopefully they’ll sort it out for you - or at least have the rejection overturned.

    Thank you for the suggestion, after my third message the researcher has relented and approved my response. I guess for the sake of less than 50p it was easier to give in!
