Recruiting
Contents
General[edit]
- Make sure you recruit only US citizens
- If you run a non-US citizen be sure to ask Erlinda what extra paperwork you need from the subject
- Be sure to have every paid subject fill out a payment form
- Be sure to record every subjects gender and ethnicity on a separate list
- If you are planning on scanning the subject see the scanning section to make sure you properly screen your subjects.
Sona[edit]
If you are recruiting young healthy subjects you should use Sona. It is an online site administered by Stanford that has a large subject pool and many convenient features for scheduling.

How to Get an Account: Contact the human subjects (HS) coordinator at hscoordinator@lists.stanford.edu (currently (2009) this is Amanda Foster). You must be up to date with your CITI training and She will need a copy of the IRB approval letter for your study. You can get this from the Lab Coordinator.
Note: When you set up your study be sure to make sure to check "Are you a U.S. Citizen?" in the Prescreening Requirements and set the answer to yes!
Q-Day[edit]
Q-Day is the survey day for Psych 1. If you need a short survey filled out fast for free, this is the way to go. If you want to do this be sure to check with the HS coordinator at hscoordinator@lists.stanford.edu or the Lab Coordinator well in advance to find out about impending deadlines and to get an Application.
Bay Area Research[edit]
If you are trying to recruit an unusual population (i.e. a clinical population, an aging population or a particular demographic) you could consider using the Bay Area Research group. This is a recruitment agency that will manage all the details of recruiting and scheduling your subjects but for a hefty fee. You'll have to discuss this option with Brian who can give you more details on how to contact the agency.
