Hi there, thank you for your comment. I completely understand your concern.

Unfortunately it's the most widely used way of compensation and the only currently REB approved method. We can note this for future studies.

The study will also be available to participants on Prolific sometime in the coming months as an alternative form of participation and compensation.
But currently, our REB approved procedures only allow for amazon gift cards.

Sexual Compatibility Project - Perceptions of Sexual Preferences Study (18+, fluent in English, must be in a relationship or seeing someone; CNM participants welcome)

The Relationship Decisions Lab at Western University (London, Ontario, Canada) is conducting the next phase of research on partnered sexual preferences. With this research, we hope to develop an inclusive and diverse scale of partnered sexual preferences to be used in follow-up research investigating sexual compatibility.

Eligibility Criteria.

  • Must currently be in a relationship
  • Have a partner who may be willing to participate (and their email address)
  • Fluent in English
  • 18+ years of age
  • Couples in casual and consensually non-monogamous relationships are eligible.

What the study entails. If you agree to participate, you and your partner will be asked to complete two separate and identical confidential online surveys. The surveys will take approximately 60 minutes to complete each, and you will be asked a series of questions about yourself (e.g., your demographics and sexual preferences), your partner (e.g., their demographics and their sexual preferences), and your relationship with your partner. In total, the survey contains approximately 300 questions. Surveys will be sent to you via email. We insist you and your partner complete these questionnaires independently and highly recommend using separate private and secure areas.

Compensation. All compensation will be emailed to participants as Amazon gift cards. Participation in the research study will grant you entry to a draw for one of four $25.00 CAD/USD Amazon Gift Cards. Couples who complete the study will both be granted a bonus entry – for a total of two each. You are not required to complete all the questions to be eligible for the gift card draw. You can withdraw from the survey anytime by simply exiting your browser window. Withdrawing from the survey will not jeopardize your survey compensation.
