Recruitment methods for Prime Panels vary depending on where participants enter the study. Prime Panels is composed of hundreds of individual panel providers, each with its own approach to reaching respondents. Some suppliers send direct email invitations, while others list available surveys on a central hub website.
To maintain neutrality and avoid biasing responses, we set external survey names to generic titles before participants complete the screening questions. Examples include "Psychology Survey," "New Survey!," or "We Need Your Opinions!" These names are typically accompanied by the estimated survey length and incentive details.
Example of a Supplier Invitation:
"There is a new study you qualify for! Earn up to X dollars."
In summary, participants are invited to take the survey with information about the estimated duration and compensation. The incentive amount may vary by supplier. For more details, please refer to our article here.
For Connect, the study title and description are set by the researcher and displayed to participants before they enter the survey.
