Researchers are recruiting adults age 30 and over to participate in a study about how people use their life stories.

In the study, you will fill out surveys assessing personality, and you will complete written narratives about different parts of your life.

Participants will be compensated with up to $40.

The entire study takes less than 3 hours to complete.

I signed up and filled out the 3 hour surveys, and now i received a message that I'm not going to be compensated. Thumbs down to the last participate that posted the thread. That was misleading.

yup considering the JOSH dude from the survey came on here and SAID if you DID NOT GET THE EMAIL yourself, you would not be compensated...

that dude needs to read the thread first...no need to blame the OP or anyone else cause he can not read!

I'm not going to extend this thread over this, but the OP, which seems to be deleted since I can't reference it anymore from this forum, didn't say that so how is someone new going into this supposed to know that?

This Josh guy put up that reply after other people finished part or all of the 3 parts wondering what was going on. I personally read that after I finished all 3 parts and tried to post a comment from the OP, but didn't see it pop up anymore except for this thread that was dated a while back and seeing Josh's response, which by then, was too late.

Even looking at this OP, it doesn't state that you had to sign up somewhere else or be contacted for previously in order to get in. No one new would know or think like that until they just so happen to have read Josh's comment somewhere in the middle of this discussion.

I understand your frustration, being new, you will slowly understand that these things do happen here and there, and you just have to learn to eat your emotions..i strongly recomment oreos cookies..might not take your frustrations away but man oh man they sure are good!:D

I'm not frustrated, I just know what I read and don't like comments from people making it seem like I was an idiot or something.

Oreo's does sound nice...but not for breakfast, that's going to ruin the appetite for meals..the rest of the day.:yummy:

when I contacted him a few days ago, also noticed about the no address part, so I emailed him after the study with my address and he said payments will be sent out tomorrow or "early next week"....so those who did email him prior to today with our addy should get the check sometime later next week or the following week
