The BRITE Lab is always looking for current students to join our subject pool list and participate in paid studies!
Overview: If you are a student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison you have a chance to participate in laboratory and online experiments which are both fun and rewarding. Experiments are designed by researchers to study behavior in a wide range of social and business situations. Most of the experiments involve multiple student participants, so they provide a chance for you to match your wits with others. Money is paid at the end of each session, and your decisions may affect its amount.
How long does it take? Each individual experiment generally lasts between 1/2 to 2 hours. After you register, researchers will invite you (via email) to participate in their experiments. You may also log in to the SONA System to see if any new studies have been entered. Please note that being invited to participate experiments is not guaranteed, and is dependent upon what experiments are currently being conducted.
What are the topics of each study? Details about each experiment cannot be given until the start of that particular session, since it may affect the outcome. All participation is voluntary and risks are minimal. The experiments and methodologies use have been approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
