The Stanford TaskGenie

Raffle results

The winning raffle ticket for the ipad is fdafe6. Congratulations.
The winning raffle ticket for the $50 amazon gift card is 09c67b. Congratulations.

We will contact the winners by email. If we do not hear back from a winner within 7 days, we will run the raffle for that specific gift again, until somebody claims it.

We will appreciate it very much if the winner of the ipad sends us a picture or video of them holding the ipad when they receive it.

Ah, Sigghh... I'm curious though. I had 23 tickets. Who had the most? And how many did the iPad winner have?

So were we supposed to save the email with the ticket # or does the winners get a "your the winner" email?

The experiment is over - Great results

Good job everyone. The experiment showed that people using the TaskGenies community completed 20%-30% more tasks compared to people wh did not use it. An analysis of variance showed that this results is statistically significant at the 95% confidence level.

Did you take note of the fact that people had a raffle ticket incentive, and that the sample was not very randomly selected?

Perhaps.... but what the heck, this was fun anyways :)

When I want someone to help me with something, I don't ask folks at "random." Perhaps the folks who worked on this project had the motivation to organize their thoughts and share them. If a raffle encourages folks to help, and the sample is not totally random, that doesn't diminish the point made that organizing one's thoughts or seeking help to organize them helps get things done.

I'm wondering when the results of the research will become available? I would be interested in seeing the technical paper (or dissertation) that discusses this experiment.
I'm an HCI fan LOL

Well in a statistical perspective, you can't automatically extrapolate these conclusions to the whole population, especially when your sample is not very representative of the population.

I'm not saying that this won't help productivity but when putting these results into a paper additional precautions need to be taken care of.

We have written a research paper about this work and we are in the process of submitting it to a peer reviewed conference. Once we hear back from the reviewing committee we will be able to post the full text of the work. We can't wait to share the full results with everyone, and show the precise method of the experiment and how exactly we tested the statistical significance of the results.
