Prolific Academic Survey Alerts

I wish some researchers would state that their study is only for residents of a particular country before I click to take part.

I tried to take that study as well, and had to cancel.

Same for me

I've just joined PA today after finding this thread.

Just done one on Number Perception. Took quite a bit longer than 6 minutes, maybe because I took it quite seriously. Wondered if I was going to spend the rest of my life answering their questions!

Just did the dreaded space chicken £4 one. It did seem shorter this time round but my shooting finger has seized up!

And today's strangest question for being screened out - how often do I participate in Prolific studies? Told the truth and got a message stating that the information I had given was inconsistent with that given to Prolific. Interesting . . .

I've just completed this study - it was an attention check question.  You had to ignore that and write the word dolphin in the Other box.

Exploration of relationship between well-being and a conscious connection with personal values

By herts.ac.uk

I have just had a similar experience (with the above Study this morning)  being screened out after answering only two questions:  My Prolific ID (which was correct) and I ticked the box (from a number of choices) to say that I was Retired.  - I am aged 74:

“You are ineligible for this study as you have provided information which is inconsistent with your Prolific prescreening responses. Please return your submission on Prolific by selecting the 'Stop without completing' button.”

After contacting the Researcher I received no reply and (I did not Return the Study) I was Timed-Out.

I had the same experience with this study.  I've messaged the researcher too. Let's hope something positive comes from doing that because I haven't given incorrect information to Prolific either.
