    Just got an email from PA with my stats. Has anyone else had one of these? Makes for interesting reading, wonder how I compare to others!


  • Yep, I had the same email. £4152.27 in 5 years. Not bad.


  • Has anyone had this notice after reserving a place when there were places available: 

    "Experiment not available

    Participant ID missing from inbound URL.

    Please cancel the task on Prolific."

    My Prolific ID is there and has not changed.  I am not sure what it means.

    Yes, I had that.  I assumed it meant that the URL which directed to the survey was malformed - an error on the part of the researcher.

    Me too - I reported it as technical error
  • Beware the User Content Generated Video Quality Test... I started it and after five minutes watching it load and still less than 50% loaded, I cancelled it.

    Beware of this one. 20 screens to work through. After spending 12 minutes on 3 screens I judged it was going to take far longer than advertised and was very tedious, so I cancelled.

    I had this one a couple of days ago and cancelled for the same reason. When I started it the completion time was stated as 15 minutes - totally impossible. I messaged the researcher and reported it but haven't heard back.
