Psychology questionnaire

[phd_researcher]

Hi,

I'm a PhD student, doing research on social cognition and theory-of-mind.

As a pilot for my new experiment I have made a google form questionnaire.
I'm looking for subjects to fill in the questionnaire. If you are interested you can find the questionnaire and its instruction on the link below:

The task in the questionnaire involves reading as set of short stories and answering simple questions about each. It takes about 1 hour to complete

I hope you get time to participate. Your contribution will be very valuable.

Many thanks in advance.

I think you will have a hard time finding strangers who will volunteer an hour (or 60-90 minutes, as the ICL says).

 

Here's an unsolicited tip from a guy who does a lot of online research: Keep it under 15 minutes. Internet people have short attention spans.

Why aren't these people using the survey system that utilizes the student population? I mean, that's essentially what we are, do they just not want to go through IRB or something? I'm confused.

I think some places have virtually no participant pool. I also agree that gradcafe is a terrible recruitment spot... a bunch of senior psych students is just asking for demand characteristics.
