How many responses do you really need? This simple question is a never-ending quandary for researchers. A larger sample can yield more accurate results — but excessive responses can be pricey.

What is the difference between MTurk and Cloud Research (previously TurkPrime)?

Cloud Research is a technology company that optimizes many participant recruitment platforms for scientific research. Mechanical Turk (MTurk) is one platform that they work with. They also work with dozens of  market research platforms (Prime Panels). Each platform has its own participant pool, referred to as an opt-in panel. Participants on these panels are profiled on hundreds of variables. Invitations are sent via email and dashboards to specific participants, based on their demographic profile. Depending on the study, one or more platforms may be used, based on a study's needs. In cases where the target group is very hard to reach a study may be feasible only when combining the resources of multiple platforms. This allows for more specific and representative samples, as well as samples that could not otherwise be attained using MTurk.
