    Dear colleagues,

     

    My co-authors and I are looking to collect data with employed individuals across a range of 25 to 30 countries, on a platform like MTurk. We came across Crowdflower, who boasts 5 million workers across 154 countries.

     

    We would be grateful if anyone could share their experience with Crowdflower. Was it reliable? Were respondents employed individuals? To what extent were they representative of the countries' populations?

     

    Suggestions about other platforms for international data collection would be great! If there is interest in the question I will compile a summary of responses and share it on the listserv.

     

    Thank you very much,

    Ariane
