Minimum-first framing: choose exactly one mode (A/B/C), produce one prototype artifact, and include one concrete verification plan.

Exercise overview: Three AI data-collection modes by example

Inputs

  • One treatment idea for A/B stimuli
  • Prolific + AI-agent integration notes
  • Tiny synthetic respondent profile inspired by Twin-2K-500

Deliverable

one worked example per mode + plausibility note + cross-mode comparison table.

Target

Submit one worked example for each mode: Natural DGP + same instrument, Natural DGP + new instrument, and AI DGP.

Checklist

  • Make one explicit design decision.
  • Include one verification check.
  • State one limitation or risk.

Common failure modes

  • Examples remain abstract without a concrete artifact.
  • No plausibility check for synthetic respondent interview.

Extension task (optional)

Add one external validation check for the synthetic respondent answers.
