Prolific Academic Survey Alerts

That would, of course, totally invalidate the data collected and analysed by the survey.  Shocking behaviour.

I'm still exchanging messages with the researcher about this, but essentially it does seem to be because my answers didn't fit the desired/expected pattern. They showed me a tweet advertising something that I am not remotely interested in, I gave my authentic responses to it, and they don't want my submission because they were expecting responses indicating a degree of interest that I did not have.

I just had a look at the study that I had an issue with last month and it was the same researcher and same topic "A survey on responses to emoji usage of Homefeel on Twitter" (https://app.prolific.co/studies/5f2bd58b955d846835ef7a4d). I refused to return the study when she asked me to and she threatened to reject it. I still decided not to return it and then somehow she managed to return it herself. This sounds very dodgy now.

The researcher did not seem interested in further discussion and just asked me again to return my submission. I have now done so, as I don't want a rejection on my record and I've already spent more time arguing the point than I spent doing the survey. Is it worth reporting it to Prolific?

I don't bother anymore as they never seem to respond to any issues that I raise.

For the men, please make sure you are not in front of your wife when you do this as you will get a clip round the ear.
