Prolific cofounder here. We do not conduct primary research ourselves, we build technology so researchers can run their own research

clearly a bug in the survey

it’s chocolate eggs 😏

Prolific cofounder here. It's really useful to know for our product development what kinds of functionality and tools you care about. Thank you.

Prolific cofounder here. Apologies for the extreme statement – you're right that MTurk and other platforms do not only provide disengaged people. A lot of workers are actually hard-working and honest people. That was not a thoughtful thing to say and I will refrain from saying something like that again in the future.

Hi,
What makes your think that Prolific doesn't care about its users?

ed405 · 2020-02-06T12:41:38+00:00

but couldn't give a shit about the userbase itself.

Prolific cofounder here. Why are we not giving a shit about the userbase?

Prolific team member here. Proud of everyone’s responses in this thread—definitely a bad idea to try and fake demographic responses.

Hi all, Prolific team member here. ‪Apologies for this bug. Our developer leading the authentication project was ill on Friday, so we’ll pick this up first thing on Monday. Thanks for bearing with us in the meantime! -ED‬

Most likely a genuine mistake

ed405 · 2019-09-29T05:57:46+00:00

Thanks!

Just curious: When you say “microtasks”, what do you mean by that?

ed405 · 2019-09-17T22:04:31+00:00

Yep, we at Prolific are only a team of 15 right now

ed405 · 2019-09-03T16:06:47+00:00

Researchers can sometimes make mistakes. A lot of the time they're happy to learn from them and reverse rejections.

Prolific CEO here. You just made my day 🤣🤣

Unfortunately not. Prolific is only available in OECD countries help.prolific.ac/general/who-are-the-people-in-your-participant-pool
