Paid Research Studies

Dedicated to supporting research teams

At SEI, we are dedicated to supporting research teams conducting paid studies by offering a comprehensive suite of services that streamline the research process and enhance the quality and effectiveness of your study. Our team of experts is committed to assisting you at every step, ensuring that your research efforts are not only successful but also exceptionally efficient.

Support For Your IRB Process

IRB Process Support

One of the key aspects of our support for research teams revolves around the pivotal phase of Institutional Review Board (IRB) applications. We recognize the complexities and challenges that can arise in this process and stand by your side, offering invaluable guidance and assistance to navigate through the regulatory landscape, ensuring your study adheres to ethical and compliance standards.

 

Assistance with Your Study Design

Assistance With Your Study Design

We understand that the foundation of a successful research study lies in its design and logic. To this end, we collaborate closely with your team to assist in study design, including the crucial task of conducting power analyses. This analysis is instrumental in determining the optimal size of your study, ensuring that the data collected leads to meaningful and robust conclusions.

Designing and Managing Your Study Incentives

Designing and Managing Your Study Incentives

Incentives play a pivotal role in promoting strong response rates in paid research studies. Our team leverages extensive experience to help you devise an incentive structure that effectively encourages participation. Moreover, we streamline the process by disbursing e-gift cards, reducing the cumbersome paperwork often associated with approval processes within organizations and institutions. We partner with Tango Rewards, a trusted platform with a vast catalog of over 1,000 digital gift cards, prepaid cards, and charitable donations, ensuring that there's something for everyone among your study participants.

Assistance with Instrument Design and Data Collection / Management

Our commitment to assisting research teams extends to every aspect of your study, from protocol design to data collection, especially when sensitive data is involved. We offer the convenience of housing and administering surveys through our Qualtrics or SurveyMonkey accounts, providing a seamless and secure data collection process.

For a more comprehensive approach to data gathering, we offer custom-designed paid tools like iBioSketch, PubKeeper, and a LinkedIn Profile scraping tool that can be tailored to complement your study and gather supplementary data efficiently. Read more about our custom tools here.

Lastly, as your research progresses, we stand ready to assist in cleaning and analyzing datasets, especially if you need an independent team to ensure that the identities of respondents are protected prior to sharing the data set with the broader research team. This sometimes is an IRB requirement to safeguard privacy but also can be a strategy to reduce potential bias in your research findings.

" SEI keeps a pulse on funding agencies' priorities throughout the years. They also ensure that our program aligns with other programs, shares information and data for program improvement. "
