$200 Remote Smartphone Survey Study [40+]

Boston MA

Description

Would you like to earn up to $200 for your participation in a fully remote research study? The Lifespan Emotional Development Lab at Northeastern University (Boston) is recruiting people for a study on emotions in adulthood. We’re looking for healthy participants ages 40+ with no history of psychiatric or neurological problems. Smartphone or tablet is required. Participation in this fully remote study occurs over the course of about 3 months; It requires 3 weeks of smartphone surveys on your mobile device and two virtual laboratory visits over Zoom. During three of the weeks in between the laboratory visits, you will use an app on your mobile device to complete surveys in which you will be prompted to respond about recent social and emotional experiences. These 3-minute surveys will prompt responses five times a day for seven consecutive days. To participate in this study, you must generally be able to respond within 1 hour to survey prompts. In addition to helping further knowledge about emotions, your participation will provide you with an opportunity to learn about your own emotional development. Payment occurs at the end of the study (up to $200). Participants will receive $40 for completing both laboratory sessions and $1 for every completed survey. If participants complete 75% of surveys, they will receive a bonus of $25. If participants complete 90% of surveys, they will receive the full $200.
