We are trying to find a way to prevent participants from repeating the study. Is it possible to make the link to the study only available once? Or something similar? Using only Inquisit and nothing else, that's not really possible, no. You'd have to have your own webserver and some web programming experience. Your site would need a database of the vaild one-time links would have to keep track of each participant's individual link (pointing to your site), That server of yours would then redirect the participant to the Inquisit start page if the link is valid. If it is not valid / has been used before, then the server would have to refrain from redirecting.A participant, however, would still be able to repeat the experiment by visiting the Inquisit start page directly or by saving the redirection URL from their first (valid) attempt.Oh ok thank you so much for your quick and helpful response! Seeing now as so many studies are online, do you have any recommendations for only allowing participants to do the study once? It's hard to limit their participation when they aren't in person.
