For this week, what I did mainly was to pay my participants who either have completed the survey or the experiment session. Some of my participants want Chinese Starbucks gift card and some prefer US Amazon. It’s a little messy at first, but I think I am pretty organized by now with my helpful tracking sheet.

Other than that, I am still recruiting more participants. It’s wonderful that one participant who was in my first experiment session, reached out to some of her friends, and they added me on Wechat to ask me further questions about how to sign up for this experiment. I believe that when there are more and more sessions done, my study will be introduced by my participants to their friends, which would be a really good sign in terms of recruitment.

Later in this week I will have my 2nd session, hopefully this time it will go faster and more smoothly than last time — only practice makes perfect!
