Just to clarify, multiple emails of support and shared exasperation!

I agree my tone was one of exasperation and if I caused offence I apologise. I have received multiple emails to my personal account expressing the same.
I'm not sure how I am supposed to be violating research ethics though. I am not working with the original poster and whilst research ethics is broad ranging and includes how one should conduct oneself during research with participants, stakeholders etc, Rosemary, I don't think it extends to this situation. That would be covered under professionalism, if anything.
Just saying.

Hi
I think all of these problems could easily be solved by a little forward-thinking concerning research ethics and professional behaviour.
Seven participant requests to the same group of people in less than two weeks violates both.
Aggressive emailing to colleagues, Rachel, also violates both.

Clare, I believe there is already a forum (possibly on the psypag site?) where you can ask for participants. It would be really hard to keep a record of who had done what, as you are suggesting, because either you have to trust people to report honestly what they have done or the researcher has to break confidentiality.
It would also help if people made it clear at the start of the subject line whether they want males only/mexicans only (hard to get on a British mailing list I'd have thought) or whatever. Then if it doesn't apply to you, you just delete it.

Subject: Re: British and Mexican Attitudes Towards Date Rape.
I have been wondering for a while if maybe the solution is to have a separate list for participation in experiments. I also had the idea that maybe this could work a bit like credits do within universities - so for example, maybe people only sign up to this list if they promise to do N number of experiments a year. In return for doing others' experiments, you can then post experiments to the list.
That way, maybe more people will actually take part in experiments, so that people don't need to repeatedly email for the same study. And, it will keep discussions from stats separate to adverts for participation (e.g. people can put them in separate email folders).
What do people think?

I think SEVEN emails within TEN days about the same bloody survey is quite enough, thank you…

Subject: British and Mexican Attitudes Towards Date Rape.
Hi to all again,
I keep struggling to get more participants. I am a postgraduate student at York University doing dissertation on british and mexican attitudes towards date rape.
Please fill in the survey, it is interesting I promise and it does not take a lot of your time.
Thanks!
