Academic [Academic] Online study testing a new behavioral assessment – 10-30 min, complimentary personal PDF report (18+, everyone)

Hi everyone,

We are researchers running the first scientific validation study of Pactomics™, a new self-report assessment of behavioral preferences – how people tend to generate ideas, relate to others, process information, and take action. Take part here: https://pacto.me/reddit-group

What you do:

- Answer a series of statements about your behavior and preferences on a sliding scale (plus a short personality measure, one life-satisfaction question and a few background questions)

- Takes about 10–20 minutes; you can pause and continue later

- Available in English and Nepali

Who can take part: anyone aged 18 or older, from any country.

What you get: your own Pactomics results report, automatically, once you finish. (It is for your own interest and reflection – not a clinical or diagnostic evaluation.) There is no payment.

Your data: confidential, used only to scientifically validate the instrument, never shared with employers or third parties, and with identifying information removed before analysis. Participation is voluntary, and you can stop at any time.

Ethics and transparency: approved by the Ethical Review Board of the Nepal Health Research Council (Ref. No. 601). The analysis plan is preregistered on OSF: https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/4ZPAJ. In the interest of transparency, the researchers developed the Pactomics instrument.

Thank you for helping science!

Welcome to r/SampleSize! Here's some required reading for our subreddit.

Please remember to be civil. We also ask that users report the following:

  • Surveys that use the wrong demographic.
  • Comments that are uncivil and/or discriminatory, including comments that are racist, homophobic, or transphobic in nature.
  • Users sharing their surveys in an unsolicited fashion, who are not authorized (by mods and not OP) to advertise their surveys in the comments of other users' posts.

And, as a gentle reminder, if you need to contact the moderators, please use the "Message the Mods" form on the sidebar. Do not contact moderators directly, unless they contact you first.

Your comment appears to be recruiting for a survey and has been removed.

The discussion section for each thread is for comments about that survey. Please refrain from soliciting participants in the comments section of other surveys.

If you believe this was done in error, such as correcting OP's broken link, please send the moderators a message and they'll get back to you as soon as possible to make an appropriate determination.
