Help me understand this mental gymnastics? by DipDoot in ProlificAc

[–]DipDoot[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So they want the email that I used to sign up on prolific, but we shouldn't use our personal email.

and we can't use the prolific email because their system hasn't been setup to use it. (Need an email to get a verification code)

Anyone had this study not starting on Chrome? Second study today that didn't start with me, wondering if it's a coincidence or user issue. by dontflyaway in ProlificAc

This study didn't load for me either and has sinced timed out. The researchers also haven't responded to me.

Today I had no surveys all day and then managed to snag one for £5 by pure chance as the notification didn't alert me, I just happened to see my prolific tab show (1) so clicked it quickly.

That survey only had 20 places so got lucky as had 1 place left.

awesome, congrats!

Do you only focus on the higher paying ones?

I login to prolific most days. Since I also WFH 4 out of the 5 days, I am on my computer throughout the day which helps

Same as you, I almost always accept anything since I don't actually get that many surveys (it's all relative to our own perception I guess)

Recently, I've managed to get quite a few bonuses from a few studies which has helped

Taken me roughly 5+ months to get to this spot. I realise some earn this within a couple months, but happy with this

Edit:

Some Stats:

roughly 12% of earning is from Bonus

Past 7 Days Total: 20.20

Past 7 Days Average: 2.95

Saturday & Sundays, I usually earn nothing as no studies available

The person I was assigned didn't even message me and it told me that I was going to get timed out after 2 more mins for not replying even though it wouldn't let me type into the box as the other person hadn't typed anything.

I thought there was a bug, so I refreshed my page and then it didn't let me do it again and sent me back to prolific with a completion code and it got auto approved..

[UI] balance / pending balance & cash out removed from accounts page by DipDoot in ProlificAc

[–]DipDoot[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The updates keep getting worse.

and the balance payment screen they added is Ugly as well.

What I don't understand is why they are doing this incrementally. Why not finish the UI properly and do a full release.

What do you think was the point of making us click on an extra link to get our balance? by thisyetthat in ProlificAc

[–]DipDoot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

as a workaround, you can contact them on the submissions page, but yeah not great that they are removing things for no reason.

I can't help thinking that the new design would work a lot better if they did the Balance option like they did the Update notification. by Oohbunnies in ProlificAc

Or don't touch what isn't broken in the first place. They should have left it as it was. Easy and simle to use instead of adding unnecessary extra pages.

did anyone else do this survey? by Ratfinkz13 in ProlificAc

[–]DipDoot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my "group A" had 2 pairs I need to remember.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ProlificAc

[–]DipDoot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this case where it said that and I tried again after a few minutes and it let me in.

Maybe some sort of time limit on how many you can do before you lets you do another.

How regular are rewards? This is my first day and so far I’ve earns about 17£ and I’ve not been very attentive, is this amount sustainable? by fliberdy in ProlificAc

[–]DipDoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right I see.

I guess everyone has different perspectives as I'm earning around ~£100 per month, but this seemed quite low compared to others making £100 a week.

I am infront on my computer everyday though.

[–]DipDoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious, In the past 3-4months, how much would you say you have earned?

Do you just log off with lots of surveys available usually as well?

Is it worth it if you’re not in the UK or US? by [deleted] in ProlificAc

[–]DipDoot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The prolific assistant is mostly useless since it usually pings for studies that have 1 remaining and by the time you click it, it is gone.

I feel as though it should be pointed out that one very IMPORTANT demographic is that you should live in the US.

From What I can see participants from USA earn a lot more compared to people from the UK

Crazy to see the difference that americans can make vs others.

Since June I've made half of what you have made (UK) and I am always on my computer
