The study was unending despite the intended completion time being 10 minutes. Max time allowed being 44 min with an average completion time of 41 min... continued after I got timed-out to see if there was an end, stopped after reaching the ~570th question. Just repeated and boring questions. Waste of time. + tried reaching out and got no answers... not surprising.

Timed Out

Avoid at all costs. Same as previous loops around various LLM models to rate. Spent over 30 mins before I hit the realisation that I would time out anyway. I am naturally suspicious and cannot help but think that this design flaw is on purpose to get initial free ratings on model responses...

Technical Issues

Same as previous reviews. The questions kept repeating and were never ending.

Technical Issues

Avoid this study AT ALL COSTS. There is a severe technical error and it will never end. You will go through pages until you are timed out and still never reach a submission point. It's not possible to submit.

"A study about product questions and answers", Researcher Suggested it takes 10 minutes, wasted 40 minutes trying to finish for them to never find the end kept going and going, do not trust.

This took me a bit less time than intended, and it was pretty fun and paid okay. Supposedly there is a bonus for maintaining a high score, but it's been weeks since I did the study and I haven't gotten any bonus yet. We shall see

Took me almost 12 minutes, intended time was 8 minutes. But it was a pretty good simple study and I got an easy $0.25 bonus. Says at the end that the entire pay will be sent out within a week. Edit: base & bonus pay were paid out within a couple days!

In Study Screening

Only took a few seconds, got screened out for $0.14 when the study was paying $0.15.. I don't really understand how that works, but ok.

This is my alma mater and I won't touch their studies. This is because I had a researcher who rejected my submission and when I asked if I could return the study, he gave me a very hard time and treated me as though I was being outlandish. I probably should have contacted the IRB and I regret not doing so. Never again, University of Wisconsin!!
