Welcome to the Behavioral Lab Help Request Form!
Please read the information below carefully before submitting.
Please fill out the following form as thoroughly as you can so the Behavioral Lab staff can best serve you.
Some helpful guidelines:
- Please allow our team 2 business days to respond to your request (not to post your study). Sometimes the lab is very busy and could take longer for us to respond. We will reply as soon as we can.
- Please do not expect same-day posting of an online study. The lab may not be able to depending on our workload.
- All students must program their own surveys. However, the Behavioral Lab staff will be happy to assist with consultation and guidance.
- Please have your materials ready when you submit your Help Request:
- your survey programmed (if you are student), your survey in a word doc (if you are faculty), a draft of a rubric for coding for the RAs to use when coding
- Submitting prior to having your materials ready does not save you a place in line, it just slows down the process.
- Please submit one Help Request per survey. If you expect multiple rounds of surveys, please submit multiple help requests up front or over the course of the project.
- If your online survey needs to be programmed prior to launching it please fill out an "Any Other Help Request," and not an "Online" request.
For in-person laboratory experiments:
- Do not submit an in-lab Help Request without first speaking with the lab director, Nick Hall (nickhall@stanford.edu).
- The meeting is needed to discuss the availability of lab space and personnel, project timelines, required resources, possible RAs and confederates, and related topics.
- All students who are coauthors on an in-person laboratory experiment are required to oversee and manage the study and RAs, as well as personally run at least 20% of all study sessions.
- The lab staff will train and guide students as needed.
