i guess students these days can't come up with original surveys. I'm really tired of the "does personality change?" article.
I want to know what jackass with a Doctorate in Sociology decided that data from a 20 minute survey of pushing the P & Q keys is better than a 5 minute survey of pushing the F & J keys. ANNNNDDDD, how did he convince whatever Board somewhere this is the preferred survey format for graduate students everywhere?

:thinking:

tbh there's a large amount of bs-ing when it comes to grant requests. The more reputable research organizations just basically get thrown money. its both good and bad :p

Waking up early was a severe mistake. I should go back to sleep and wake up again at let's say....4 years from now.
Yes yes take all the time you want. An important rat such as yourself needs all the rest he can get. Don't deprive yourself of that!

Morning, all. $3.50 thanks to Prolific to start the day. Would have had an extra $1.25 here but my PandA for Zoltar fucked up my interface, allowing me to accept a hit twice and get the 'you've already completed...' message of doom before I could submit.

It's going to be a great day.

I was a big fan of NDT, mostly because I'm a fan of anyone trying to motivate interest in science, but honestly I've started to become a bit disenchanted with him. I feel like the fame's gotten to him and he's become really pompous, which you didn't get from Sagan.
I like NDT. Sagan was into :weed: though, so I've got to give him some praise for that.

Answer a survey about your opinions Krishna Savani 1.50 took longer than 15 to do honestly sent a message here is hopping for a bonus. Won't hold my breath. You can still cheat your way through it one attention check. But I am not that kind of person.

they can't (primers and subscales that we see over and over are normed and validated so they have to use them to compare with whatever spin they put in there that is their original stuff...........which isn't quite your point :), but thought I'd chime in before another cup of coffee :coffeepc:

Is there a script that logs your time spent on hits. Or am I missing something?
