ORCAs Depression Study For working people 18+ $200
 

Are you working at least part-time and feeling stressed or down lately? Take part in our research study and receive up to $200.

We are currently seeking workers age 18 and over to help us evaluate a web-based program called the MoodTracker. The program is designed to help working people feel better and we need your input!

Taking part in the evaluation includes completing 4 online assessments over a 10 week period which shouldn't take more than 45 to 60 minutes each. We will also ask you to use our program a few minutes a day for the first 6 weeks. You will receive up to $200 for participating.

To see if you qualify, please visit our online survey at: http://wellnessatwork.surveyconsole.com.
We only need a limited number of participants so it’s important to contact us as soon as possible. If the survey states that you might be a good fit for this study, we will call you shortly afterwards to ask you a few brief questions and answer any questions you might have.
Any information you give us is kept completely confidential – you will be assigned an ID code to keep your information separate from your name and your information will not be shared with anyone outside of ORCAS.

Ok, it seems no one else wants to be seen posting on this one, or everyone is already extra Happy and WooHoo'ing it up out there with no stress whatsoever. ;) I'll thank you for sharing this Harlgal as maybe it will be of help to all who qualify. Ten weeks seems long for a study yet $200 is nice compensation and maybe their interesting sounding Moodtracker program will even help. REPPed x4 for taking the time to share one like this for all. Here's to your survey success.

I DQ'd and now i am even more depressed. Thanks anyway OP.

dnq & am depressed from that.lol:confused:

Save the Manatee!!!!

Finally got called for this, and I'm in. :)

I took the 1st survey which was pretty short. It pays $50! Very exciting! :)

i was chosen for the daily tracking group and took 1st survey month ago. i thought the 2nd survey should have come out last week at 3 weeks. have you gotten your second survey yet?

Yup, I took the survey last week. Did you check your spam box. Sometimes they go there.

anyone paid for second survey yet.

3rd survey up. This is a fun study and the checks come pretty quick. Gotta love it!

Yes, I got my check a few weeks ago.

I've only gotten 2 surveys and 1 check so far.

Same here.

Those of us w/2 surveys 1 check are in a different group-there are 2, ours is the review the websites/track mood and I think it pays $150 total....the other is different and it pays $200 total

yes thnx. i did 2nd study & recvd check. i think daily tracking group has 4 studies for full $200 after 10 weeks & 2nd group only reads helpful articles with fewer studies for less pay. i think i read the daily track group was only to track for 6 weeks. its been 6 weeks so should stop soon then only final studies.

this was a really good experience and helpful. i just completd the final survey and cant believe 12 weeks flew by. hopefully my final check comes as fast as the others. they said there may be another paying part to this so fingers crossd some of us are selected.

thank you again for your posting.

i completed the fourth survey. they said thats the last one and final check s/b sent out soon. hope you had a good experience and finished your final survey too.

what are the inputs to get through this?

does age matters

Dnq :(

You got to be real depressed and probably manic too.
A big problem in Psychiatry is they don't have a silver bullet for manic-depression, when people are up and down on a cycle. So, lots of pharmas are trying to concoct some pill to fix this and they need a bunch of studies that say the pill is safe for babies and animals and so on. So you have to tell them you get depressed all the time but then you are up in the clouds and people worry about you.

I got my 4th check today! :)

I agree. I told the researcher that I really learned a lot from this study. I got my last check today. I hope we get picked for the other study, too. This was an excellent experience!

I got called for this one about a month ago and didn't qualify. Think this is a new study for it?

i got final check too. agree this was gr8 experience & wasnt for manic people like some made jokes of here. was eyeopening on daily stress & how to improve mood. be gr8 if they do recontact us for a followup or to use the final product. one of the best studies ive ever done.

this wasnt new study link. some of us replying wey finished our group which lastd 2months. they did 2 diff study sessions with 2 groups in each one said some of us might b askd to do a followup but mabe theyll do some new groups too if they need more feedback on this

Still waiting for my 4th check . Hopefully I'll get it on Monday
