Dos and Don'ts of Participation

 

DO take your participation seriously. While you should not take a research study to be akin to a test or an exam, you should nonetheless participate with integrity - pay attention to instructions and be sincere in your responses.

DO put your handphone on silent while the study is in progress.

DO be punctual. Often, studies cannot begin until all participants are present, and your tardiness will inconvenience all concerned.

DO NOT participate in a study and have a meal at the same time.

Please treat each study seriously and work on your given tasks in teach study quietly and following the specific instructions given by the research assistant or professor conducting the study. DO NOT talk to your neighbours. Distractions to yourself or to other students in the study can ruin the research study, resulting in a big waste of everyone's time. Not everyone in the same study has the same questionnaire, and some students may take longer than others - if you finish early, please wait until you get instructions on the next task - if you are taking longer than others, DON'T feel pressured to finish quickly.
