Just mentioning again ( this topic is discussed in the list archives) the luxury of working in government surveys that while some of our surveys are legal mandatory to respond to many are voluntary and we offer no incentive at all. There are possible biases introduced with incentives. Example: someone who is wealth will not reply because a 50$ Amazon gift card is not worth it. In government surveys too, we can not favour any private businesses, so gift cards to businesses are not going to work. My suggestions for more neutral unbiased survey work.

Hello all,
I am wondering if anyone can recommend any alternatives to Amazon gift cards for providing incentives for study participants.
Any suggestions would be appreciated,
Noriko
