Hi, I have a Pavlovia experiment and I have to recruit participants from Prolific. My question is about the redirect URL. I added it in a separate routine at the very end (thank for the participation) routine in a Text component, but I cannot copy this link from the screen in the browser. (sam is true for the code) In an older thread I read that I should add the URL in the Experiment settings/Online/Completed URL but I am afraid that in this case, participants who click on “Do not agree” in the very first information sheet/consent form routine (so don’t actually complete the study) may get paid as well…How can I make either the link work in the last routine / ensure that only those are redirected who did the study?
Does this hint help with your issue? You can change the link if they don’t consent, for example.
Hi, @wakecarter, Thank you, it does help. There are two things that are unclear. First, what shall be the cancellation URL? A Pavlovia survey with one “Thanks for consideration” textbox or…? 2. Currently my “Redirect URL” from Prolific looks sth like this: Prolific completion code - I do not have ProlificID included at the end. Shall I add sth apart from the expeInfo[‘participant’]?
Since you don’t want to pay people who cancel, then I would recommend that the cancellation URL is a Pavlovia Survey (if you have a licence), or a public Google doc, or your institution website.
If you are sending the ProlificID to Pavlovia as participant then I think you should send it back, though I’m not sure if this is needed.
Thanks, @wakecarter! Can I test whether my links work without payment? (Currently, I have zero money on my Prolific account.)
Have a look at this help page on Prolific
If you have no credits on Pavlovia and don’t have a licence then you can generate a Pilot link and then add the pilot code manually to your URL when you arrive at Pavlovia from Prolific.
