Abstract The popularity of conducting research online has prompted many questions regarding the impact of various conditions under which surveys are conducted. In particular, the interaction between length of survey (both in terms of time and number of questions) and incentive (either total incentive offered as a prize package or the approximate value of the incentive on an individual basis) has been thought to influence the number and proportion of mid-survey abandoners. This article will discuss the findings from 19 Web-based studies conducted from January 1 to April 25.
