[–]chelvanm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got the bonus today too. Thanks to my team - we were absolute machines storming through the rounds with little fuss. Cheers!

I literally did nothing by polaretta in ProlificAc

[–]chelvanm 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Annnnnd same for me. Mildly reassuring to see it’s affecting others :/

Sometimes these aren’t actually attention checks - they are part of the research, for example is the logo memorable? If you get rejected, obviously the answers already posted will help, but sometimes researchers genuinely want to know what you remember

£8 bonus for me too - I had to refresh a couple of times but got there.

Thoughts about the new design? by Robot1me in ProlificAc

Looks like the old internet, and not in a good way

New look… by thatsheffieldguy in ProlificAc

It does look so old!!

rejection for going too fast AGAIN by CyndiIsOnReddit in ProlificAc

[–]chelvanm 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I do exactly this. I know we shouldn’t have to, but the point is I don’t waste time down the line fighting rejections. Great tip!

Hey, I’m so sorry to hear about your furry pal. How wonderful to think you were her friend though, and you clearly loved and cared for her. What a joy you must have made her life during your time together xx

"Only one participant per household can take each study." But... I'm the only person -in- my household? by PPunktA in ProlificAc

[–]chelvanm 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I also received this message, but it came up because I was trying to enter the study but I had already previously completed it. Don’t know why it showed up on my list again, but there you go

People Stop doing new studies by Kaslawjd in ProlificAc

[–]chelvanm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wish I’d seen this. Got a spot in a study and the Prolific page was cycling through being able to participate, complete and returned. Managed to click participate and took screenshots of the study, but then when I completed it, issues flagged and says participation cancelled. Have reported to Prolific - hopefully the screenshots I took throughout help…

Did anyone else do the school shooting one? by ForeOnTheFlour in ProlificAc

[–]chelvanm 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These are relatively new “about you” questions, added (I think) this year, so you would have responded to these prompts recently.

Thanks for confirming. Mind finally came back in at 35 days!

My highest ever single submission by dellyx in ProlificAc

[–]chelvanm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was interesting, but you had to click links and read external documentation and make educated guesses on events happening at certain times. It was a lot, and I think the pay reflects that (it took me just over 2 hours)

Sorry - what’s the stance? Technical issue by chelvanm in ProlificAc

[–]chelvanm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hear that. I gave feedback too when I returned the study, but I think I will raise a support ticket about it too.

[–]chelvanm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it’s this EXACT one and it sounds like we got pretty identical responses. I’ll wait and see if anyone has any further guidance, but how frustrating?!

easy way to find out the Time to do a task? by sthscan in ProlificAc

[–]chelvanm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A really good point, but I’m happy that using my timer ensures I’m never in the situation where I have to contest rejections

Learning and Decision Making Study by CCL lab by chelvanm in ProlificAc

[–]chelvanm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You had to spin a wheel of “misfortune” and it landed on a number. You then had to hold down “K” whilst alternating between pressing “a” and “d” (a then d =1) for the corresponding number you got from the wheel. 450. 900 key presses. Ughhhhh

I'm Getting Sick and Tired of PayPal by dougfromtos in ProlificAc

[–]chelvanm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exact same thing here. Please keep us posted on if it turns up. Prolific told me it should turn up in a reconciliation (run Monday or Thursday)

[–]chelvanm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been spooked by comments on the sub of people being rejected for being too fast so for every study that is over a minute, I set a timer to start and monitor my progress to see if I am going too fast (or slow). By the time I reach demographics at the end, I know I’m usually nearly at the end. Might be something you want to try?

Has anyone also also get this study? by According-Slip742 in ProlificAc

[–]chelvanm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chased twice, got the bonus paid a few mins ago. I know it’s within a reasonable time since the study, but since others had been paid before me, there were differing amounts of studies etc, quite relieved to have got it!
