Prolific Presents...

The COVID pandemic pushed many behavioural researchers online, where they reaped the benefits of larger samples and faster data collection. Now that the pandemic is 'over', will researchers go back to the lab? Or continue to embrace these new ways of working?

This talk will showcase the wide range of possibilities with online research in fields such as memory studies, motor studies, eye-tracking studies, & developmental studies. You'll also learn about technical capabilities such as mouse-tracking, eye-tracking, voice-recording, web-cam recording, games, multiplayer studies, shopping simulations and more that are now available for mainstream research.

We'll also explore the concerns many researchers have about online research including worries about data-quality and security.

So, if you'd like to know what's possible for a future grant proposal or for teaching 21st century research methods, this talk is for you!
