Hello Greig, To follow on what Claudia has mentioned, I have experience of using crowd flower. Crowdflower is a third party service, which lets you use Mturk via their website. So, in a sense, you still access Mturk participants. One drawback is that Crowdflower charges you for this service. I cannot remember the figures off the top of my head, but you pay several pence on top of the standard Mturk fee. So it is more expensive. With that said, to gather over 200 participants in a day or two, it can be worth the extra price. Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any trouble with the website, as I can send you through some pointers if so. Cheers, Dan. From: Research of postgraduate psychologists.

I used it for a couple of studies when I was based in the US and once I moved to the UK I could not use it anymore. However, there are similar websites that you can use in the UK. They are a little bit more expensive than Mturk and I do not know how fast you can collect the data through them (I have never used them), but you can take a look. Here their links: http://www.fieldagent.co.uk/ http://crowdflower.com/products/surveys http://www.clickworker.com/en/online-umfragen I hope this can be useful.

From what I can tell you can't use the service unless you're based in the US, but I'm wondering if there's some way around this.
