Case Study: Dresden University achieves 90% retention in longitudinal eating behavior research with Prolific and Labvanced

Dresden University achieves 90% retention in longitudinal eating behavior research with Prolific

Dresden University, specifically Dr. Maria Seidel's research team, faced the challenge of studying eating disorders beyond the limited scope of hospital patients. They needed to recruit a large, demographically matched sample of German-speaking participants for a complex longitudinal study, while also ensuring high data quality from an uncontrolled, remote environment.

By integrating Prolific's platform, the team gained access to a large pool of verified participants and precise filtering tools to recruit their required demographic. Prolific's integration with Labvanced and its quality control systems, including transparent payment reviews, enabled the successful execution of the study. The solution delivered exceptional results, including a 90% participant retention rate and high-quality data that validated real-world findings, leading to several published studies.
