The current study was designed to examine the Conscientiousness of undergraduates completing an online survey. Participants (n=300) completed the survey which was designed with best practices in mind (e.g., the survey was less than 10 minutes, used an incentive, etc.). There were 25 “trap”questions embedded within the survey. Nearly 94% of the sample did not fail any trap. The present data suggest some confidence in using an undergraduate sample for online survey data collection.
Two alumni from her team (Michael farsi and Jaymi Feeney) who participated in the study attended the conference presentation as well.
