Select­ing for the high­est qual­i­ty and most engaged participants

Andrew Gor­don — Prolific

In this talk we will be dis­cussing the var­i­ous meth­ods used by Pro­lif­ic to man­age its par­tic­i­pant pool in order to ensure that all of the par­tic­i­pants are of the high­est pos­si­ble qual­i­ty. This includes a dis­cus­sion of how we onboard new par­tic­i­pants, the var­i­ous lev­els of ver­i­fi­ca­tion we enforce, and how we mon­i­tor account and pool sta­tus over time. We will also be shar­ing a few tips for what you can do as a researcher to select for the best par­tic­i­pants from Prolific.
