Welcome to our research participation program! Our site funds independent research into reinforcement satiation through paid sponsorships, product promotions, and other instruments of funding. We then offer this funding directly to willing participants who are incentivized to view an advertisement from a sponsor and confirm “I am not a bot” by completing our “participant compensation captcha.” Our goal is to promote research in this area and encourage wider participation, which we believe will attract more sponsors and contributors, making this project a more sustainable asset.

Participant Requirements

To participate, you must have a PayPal account in good standing. You must also be at least 18 years old and reside in a country where PayPal is available. Please note that we may also have additional eligibility requirements for specific research studies.

Choosing a Platform

Participants can choose from several different platforms to receive their compensation, including PayPal, Venmo, and Cash App. Processing times and fees may vary by platform, so please be sure to review this information before making your selection.

Viewing Content

Participants will be asked to view and interact with content provided by our sponsors. This content may include advertisements, videos, or other forms of media. We expect participants to engage with this content in good faith and according to any guidelines provided.

Completing the Participant Compensation Captcha

To confirm that you are not a bot, you will be asked to complete a "participant compensation captcha." This captcha charges participants $3.00 USD to complete, but is instantly rebated and participants receive an additional $2.00 instantly in their PayPal balance. Once your submission is accepted, you will receive your compensation according to the platform you selected in Tab 3.

Continuing or Retiring Session

After completing the captcha, you will have the option to continue to the next research study or retire your session. You may participate in an unlimited number of studies and return to our site at any time to continue your participation.

Sustainable Participation

We believe that wider participation in our research program will lead to more sponsorships and funding, which will make our project more sustainable in the long run. By participating in our program, you are contributing to a larger effort to promote research in this area, and we appreciate your support.

Abstract

In ABA 101, we learn about the power of reinforcement and how it can be used to shape desired behavior through the principles of ABA. Through this study, I aim to demonstrate the effectiveness of ABA principles by examining participant satiation in relation to the acquisition of contingent reinforcement. I will also transparently share outcome data in real-time and hope to implement these methods beyond this study. The study will involve participants completing a series of simple tasks, receiving immediate compensation, and then being given the option to continue or return to the portal. The main objective is to determine the average level of satiation for contingent reinforcement acquisition among participants and identify emerging patterns in environmental variables through a continuous baseline condition. Additionally, the study aims to promote the concept of "Reactivity" by fostering participants' awareness of their behavior and performance. It is hoped that this awareness will carry over into their daily lives outside of the controlled study environment.

Why is this an important area of research?

It is crucial for individuals to understand their personal limits and how much they are willing to push themselves towards satiation. If environmental variables such as location and schedule were not a factor, and if direct instruction was available throughout the task, and appropriately sized reinforcement was readily available for immediate earning, the expected duration of the average person and the frequency of completed responses or acquiesced for reinforcement could be determined. OperantChamber is interested in this research to gain insight into the expected duration and response frequency of individuals, and participant prize compensation may vary across the entire site or research platform. By understanding these factors, we can better design and implement effective behavior modification programs that utilize reinforcement techniques to promote desired behavior.

What problem does this study address?

The focus of this study is to address the lack of research available on the effectiveness of performance management and reinforcement techniques in non-clinical environments for typically functioning individuals under similar contingent circumstances, both at an individual and group level. This research aims to bridge the gap in understanding and provide valuable insights into how reinforcement strategies can be implemented in real-world situations to achieve optimal behavior outcomes. By studying these aspects, we can develop more effective behavior management strategies for non-clinical settings.

What is the purpose of this research/study?

The primary goal of this study is to educate participants on the motivating principles of ABA through the demonstration of the D.I.S.C shaping techniques during their trial responses. Additionally, we aim to track points of satiation across all participants on the platform, providing valuable insights into how individuals respond to contingent reinforcement in real-world situations. By educating participants on these principles and tracking their responses, we hope to contribute to the knowledge base on effective behavior modification techniques and further promote the principles of ABA in non-clinical settings.

Who are the Participants?

The participants of this study are open to anyone with a reliable internet connection who registers for participation and is of legal working age. Individuals who are currently employed or have experience in entry-level employment roles are particularly encouraged to participate. However, it is important to note that participants must have personal financial resources available and be willing to utilize them to complete and verify their responses, as we want to ensure that responses are provided by real individuals rather than bots. Specifically, participants will be required to provide $3 of their own resources at the end of a trial to verify their status as human subjects. In return, participants will be rebated their initial $3 and compensated with an additional $2 for their trial participation. This compensation approach is necessary to ensure the validity and reliability of the study results while maintaining ethical standards.

What dependent variables are measured and how?

The primary dependent variable of focus in this study is the number of "continuous" successfully completed behavioral responses before satiation occurs. This variable will be measured by tallying every instance of a successful task trial for all participants and on an individual basis. By tracking this variable, we hope to gain insights into how long individuals can engage in a particular behavior before becoming satiated, providing valuable data for behavior management strategies. The secondary dependent variables of interest in this study are the duration and frequency of participants' time on the research platform. These variables will be measured by calculating the time between participants' logins and logouts (or inactivity for 5 minutes) and then determining the frequency of participants' logins and engagement in trials within a span of 7 days. By tracking these variables, we can understand how long and how frequently individuals engage in the behavior of interest, providing insights into how to optimize reinforcement strategies for behavior management in non-clinical environments.

What is the experimental design for this experiment?

The experimental design utilized in this study is a continuous baseline model, which is the most appropriate design for mimicking the contingency flow of gig work. This design aligns with the motivation approach of "work when you want, get paid when it's finished," which is common in non-traditional work environments. By utilizing this experimental design, we hope to gain insights into the effectiveness of reinforcement strategies in non-clinical environments, specifically in gig work scenarios.

This is not employment

Do not extinguish employment or alter income of life.

This is strictly a independent study, where participants are compensated for their latest participation without assumption of further participation.

Participate at your own peril; all information collected on this site is strictly for in-house use only and will never be sold directly to third parties, encrypted and all relevant data is available on public pages of the site; partial – full – transparency.

We will not be responsible for any damages that occur; because our study platform is set to automatically redirect participants upon the event of the daily funding being consumed, it is not possible for us to take collect resources from participants at said time, therefore it is/ would be impossible for participants to endure a loss of resources.

Also, with that being said, all collections of resources are one-way, and non-refundable; if the ad viewing platform is operational-- able to receive participants resources--, then participants in turn are compensated.; This constitutes completion of an agreed upon contingency, and therefore, no need or possibility for a refund.
