Dec 2006-08: Oxford Internet Institute (no skills required)

The Oxford Internet Institute (http://www.oii.ox.ac.uk) and the Said Business School (http://www.sbs.ox.ac.uk) will be running some simple, computer-based experiments in Oxford over the next two years. We will be studying online surfing behaviour and economic decision making. Nothing complicated, completely anonymous, no hidden agenda, little time and no skills required...

and you get paid for your time in the computer lab

You're normally guaranteed £3-5 just for coming along and you will earn more during the experiment. How much more depends on the experiment (and some of your decisions during that experiment) but in the past our participants would often go home with £10-15 for about an hour's work.

In order to take part, you need to register your name and email address at http://oxlab.oii.ox.ac.uk/public/participant_create.php.

Everyone can join (not only students)! Once you are registered, you will be invited by email to participate in upcoming experiments throughout the year.

We have some opportunities for participation coming up already in December so we do hope you will sign up!

The Oxford eXperimental Laboratory (OXlab) is a joint project by the Oxford Internet Institute and the Said Business School with financial support by the Fell fund. The Principal Investigators on that project are Professor Helen Margetts and Professor Nir Vulkan.
