Detailed description of study
The University of Pennsylvania is conducting a 6-week research study (The Click & Pick Study) to learn about your experience using online grocery stores and online restaurant ordering applications. In total, you will be able to earn up to $367 for your participation. If you are eligible and agree to join, we will ask you to complete the following research procedures:
Surveys: You will complete two surveys — one at the start of the study and one at the end. You will be paid $10 for the first survey and $15 for the second.
Interviews about your eating habits. We will ask you to do two, 30-minute interviews with a trained member of our research team who will ask you in-depth questions about your eating habits. You will be paid $10 for each of the first two interviews, and $15 for each of the second two interviews for a total of $50.
Weekly online grocery and lunch shopping: For 6 weeks, you will buy groceries and lunch once per week from our online grocery store, “Lola’s” and our online restaurant “Grab Grub”.
Each Sunday morning, we will text you a link to the online ordering platforms. Grocery orders will be due by Monday at 11:00 AM and will be delivered the next day (Tuesday).
Lunch orders will be due by Tuesday at 11:00 AM and delivered Wednesday afternoon.
Any money you don’t spend (up to $30/week for groceries and up to $12/week for lunch) will be added to a study debit card at the end of 6 weeks.
Weekly food-related receipts collection: Send in pictures of receipts for all food or beverage purchases from grocery shopping trips, restaurant meals, vending machines, etc., outside of the study. You will be compensated $5 at the end of each week for the first 4 weeks; this payment will increase to $10 at the end of each week during Weeks 5 and 6.
