Hi Elli, we replied to your email for the same question too! Here is what we said:
Yes, many researchers create their experiments on FindingFive and then post it on Prolific. So it's a well-established use of our platform. All you need to do is to create an "institutional pool" session and then share the study URL with your prolific participants. Remember to (1) set an access code to your session and (2) only display the completion code at the very end of your experiment.
To answer your specific questions:
1. Yes. You should check out the grammar documentation on a feature called "Early Exit": https://docs.findingfive.com/en/grammar/...early-exit You'll need to use the conditional branching feature, and we have a study template for that when you create a new experiment.
2. No. You will need to set up two completion codes instead. One that corresponds to the "normal exit", and the other for early exits.
3. Don't do that. That only leads to confusion in our experience. Just post the FindingFive study URL once you've launched the session. You can find the URL in session management. Prolific participants in general are well versed in dealing with FindingFive. Many of them have existing accounts, and they can create accounts on FindingFive to complete your study.
Any questions please let us know! Thanks!
