The novel coronavirus has affected all of us. We know many of our researchers have suddenly lost access to physical lab spaces and participants, and are faced with many challenges in transitioning their research to the Internet. We at FindingFive are dedicated to doing whatever we can to address those challenges to assist you in conducting high-quality, reproducible online studies…

We were thrilled to share FindingFive with the attendees of the CUNY2020 Virtual Workshop on Remote Data Collection on March 23, 2020! If you missed it, you can watch the video of the whole workshop here and read a transcript here. Session attendees and presenters generated a fantastic Q&A document along with a list of helpful resources for remote data…
Do you have a research idea that you’re excited to implement as an online experiment? Consider applying to our inaugural award program, thanks to a partnership between FindingFive and Qntfy! You could receive a $250 USD award to help defray the costs of running online participants, along with additional publicity for your research. Proposal details and submission instructions can be…
Do you have a research idea that you’ve been wanting to test? We are excited to announce that FindingFive (www.findingfive.com), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to powering online behavioral research, is partnering with Qntfy (www.qntfy.com), a behavioral analytics firm, to offer two (2) $250 awards to implement your idea using the FindingFive platform. We welcome proposals for research ideas that…
We are very excited to announce that our bundle release of new features will be live starting Monday, November 4th! In this blog post, we preview the following highlighted changes: Disclaimer: the screenshots and the features described in this post are not final. The final release may include products that are slightly different (and hopefully better) than what’s presented here.…
Over the past two years we have enjoyed substantial user growth. A big thank you to all the researchers who have found us so far! Now, we find ourselves needing to expand on our unique services so that we can increase our server resources to better serve the needs of this growing community of researchers. To do this, we are…
A typical learning experiment is usually split into two phases: a training phase, where participants get to familiarize themselves with the learning task, and a test phase, where the performance of participants is evaluated. In these situations, researchers usually want to know which participants are the learners – those who successfully “get” the learning task during the training phase, and…
Most of the studies run on the FindingFive platform are meant to be completed in a relatively short amount of time. In fact, an average study created on FindingFive contains 190 trials, which will take an average participant about 30 minutes to finish (assuming 10-15 seconds per trial). Our platform have been able to handle studies of such sizes pretty…
Note that the code examples on this page are outdated. Please refer to the FindingFive study grammar for how to use conditional branching on FindingFive. A common design in many behavioral studies is to show participants different sequences of trials that are conditional on participants’ previous responses. For example, in a typical learning study that features a training phase and…
Hi there! We are excited to announce a handy new feature, called Property Inheritance, is now available to researchers on FindingFive. It is now possible to utilize parent-child relationships within stimuli, responses, or trial templates, where the children inherit all properties defined in their parents. For those of you who are familiar with object-oriented programming languages, this should already sound…
