Have you ever done a survey or a focus group study for any kind of compensation?

I do surveys a lot, and I also have done focus groups a few times.

i’ve been in charge of administering research studies like that but never actually participated in one myself

[smahala1991]

they are really fun. Question though: How much do you think people BS their way through them? lol

[lynnn]

ones where people are not monitored, A LOT. the ones i oversaw were done in-person, so i observed the participants and could see if they were Christmas tree-ing for example.

I do on survey apps. You make cents per survey except once in a blue moon when they’re $1-3, very tedious but it adds up and can sometimes be some gas or food money in a pinch

no, but when I was in graduate school I did one as a class project. I got compensated for it by getting a good grade.

I used to participate in focus groups during college and later organized focus groups for work.
