First, you'll sign up and create an account. If you are not joining from Prolific and want to sign up to participate in the Intervenr study, please email intervenr@seas.upenn.edu to indicate your interest. Please note that you must be at least 18 years old, have a Google Account, and regularly use Google Search in order to participate.

Second, you must install the Intervenr Extension. In order to install the Intervenr Extension, you must use the Chrome Browser on a desktop computer. Instructions will be provided to you as part of the onboarding process. After you have finished installing and registering the extension, you must then continue to use the Chrome Browser for the duration of the study.

After creating an account and activating the Intervenr Extension, you will then be fully enrolled in the Intervenr study. During the study, we will collect your browsing data as well as copies of webpages from specific sites: Google, ChatGPT, and Gemini. During the study you may also experience an altered Google Search experience. This study will run for up to 10 days, and you will receive payment on Prolific at the end of the study after completing the follow up surveys.
