Prolific Academic Survey Alerts

They’ve not responded to my follow up email pointing them to YT Wang and aliases, and asking why they don’t have systems in place to prevent this.

Do you work for any of the following services?

This 'About You' question appeared last night, bit odd that there is no 'none of the above' option.

Apparently it is a UK specific question, so maybe there is a study relating to these services waiting in the wings?

Got the same problem. Very annoying since I am always sure about you section is fully updated.

Rather than leave it completely unanswered, I have ticked my most recent area of work, although I retired some time ago.

There is now a 'none of the above' option  - I've just ticked it!

I reported it yesterday, and got an instant response that they would look into it (and I mentioned the spurious "golf" and similar answers as well!) and I am delighted at how quickly they dealt with it.

Yes thanks, looks like they realised their mistake and now added it. 

I am a member of St Johns ambulance but I do not 'work' for them, I just used to be First Aider when working in the rail industry, so at a push I could choose that option, but would rather be totally honest.

Survey on social movements in the UK By maastrichtuniversity.nl

anyone got the link to the facebook page we are supposed to be following for the survey (unfortunate have mislaid it already!)

Mine linked to a UK weather page on facebook, I wonder if it is the same for everyone??

Reply with regards to Mr Wang - message is keep reporting.


“I appreciate this is frustrating. Our engineers are working extremely hard to block them from our website, but unfortunately, we don't work all hours of the day and there will be times we're slow to block YT Wang.

That's why we rely on participants reporting to us as soon as possible so we can block them.”
