    I've done it twice but wasn't sure. I did notice the attention checks were in different places though.

    Just completed this a second time myself. I messaged the researcher before I started the study just to check; they said it was OK and I was free to participate, so participate I did. One of the more pleasant and fun studies I've taken in recent weeks, I'll say that much.

    Everyday Cognition 2.0

    The general methodology of this project includes participants being asked questions about the extent to which they experience common cognitive failures in everyday life.


    Received an e-mail from Jim on Prolific directing me to this study, waiting when I logged on this morning, but looking at the time the email was sent I assumed that all the places would be taken.

    Surprisingly though there were still a large number of places left.

    Just one page of main data gathering involved, sandwiched between demographics collection, so it was completed quite quickly even by me.

    I have had quite a few studies from Australian educational establishments of late, this one was from the Australian National University In Canberra

    The surveys for which one receives e-mail invitations are usually designed for a very specific demographic, which you will fit and many others will not.  This is why they are often still available to you some hours after the invitation.

    Rate virtual-character gesticulation (approx. 27 min)

    By Gustav Henter

    I completed this Study yesterday and entered the completion code - not having encountered any problems.

    This morning I clicked to start straight away when this Study presented.  Very soon after starting I realized that it was very similar to yesterday's Study.  I continued with the Study this morning and I wondered if there would be any differences - perhaps this was not going to be identical to yesterday's Study.  The Study itself took about 29 minutes and the only difference I remembered from yesterday was that the attention checks were a bit different. The completion code this morning was different from yesterday's completion code..

    Has anyone else been 'offered' the opportunity to do both Studies?  I sent a message to the Researcher to explain but it's too soon to expect a reply yet. 

    UPDATE:   " I received a very quick reply from the Researcher just now:  "There is no problem at doing both studies. Thanks for your submissions"

    It is very generous because, if approved, each Study pays £5.50 for an estimated 27 minute Study.

    Does anyone know if there is more than 1 version of this I completed this earlier but it keeps reappearing in surveys available unsure if it is a different version or the researcher just adding more spaces 
    I just posted this morning, allison445, and was pleased to receive a very quick reply from the Researcher:  "There is no problem at doing both studies. Thanks for your submissions".

    Chat with an AI about a sensitive topic

    You have been invited to this study because you previously completed a screening questionnaire. Thank you for taking time to review this short introduction.

    About

    In this study you will be asked to have 3 conversations with an AI. The AI is able to talk about any topic, but for this study we would like you to talk with it about a sensitive topic (such as politics, religion, mental health, health/financial advice, etc.).


    Completed this study but struggled a bit to think of what to say, I started off OK by talking about politics in the first conversation but the other two wandered a bit and I ended up talking about wasps and flowers.

    Based on your comments, I take it the AI didn't hold up its end of the conversations!

    I think I went for politics, religion and racism. The religion one was a hoot; I got the AI to admit that several pop-culture references were written in various holy texts and the discussion became very surreal at that point. There was a follow-on I had about trying to deliberately provoke an AI into saying inappropriate things - hope you managed to catch both of these well-paid studies!

    No, they tended to repeat the same thing pretty much.  One seemed to have reasonable knowledge of nutritious weeds which was an avenue I led it down, but one seemed to think Teresa May was still prime minister. 

    I understand they were in development and it was a change from the usual thing with reasonable pay, so I am not complaining and definitely better than anything I could have developed.

    I did see the second one, but I was too busy unfortunately to attempt it at the time.
