Subject Guide
Subjects are experiment participants. The experiments and actions visible to a subject depend on the account, the experiment's state, and any application decision.
Participation flow
- Sign in with subject access.
- Browse the experiments visible to your account.
- Open an experiment and review its description, eligibility information, instructions, and consent material.
- Submit an application when the experiment requires one.
- Check the application state in the subject area.
- Participate only when the experiment is available to you and follow the experiment's instructions.
- Return to the subject area to review the records and states currently shown to your account.
An application does not guarantee approval, and this manual does not promise a review time.
Before participating
- Confirm that you understand what the experiment asks you to do.
- Review the experiment-specific data and consent information.
- Ask the experimenter if eligibility, data use, withdrawal, or compensation information is unclear.
- Do not assume a reward unless the specific experiment states one.
During participation
Follow the experiment instructions and avoid submitting another person's data. If a page fails, record the URL, the last action, and the visible error before leaving or retrying repeatedly.
Account recovery
Self-service password reset is not reliably available. Use any recovery option currently shown on the sign-in page; if it is absent or fails, contact technical support.
Access boundaries
A subject account does not grant experimenter or administrator functions. Experimenter access requires separate authorization.
