Several reviews have concluded that the quality of data achieved in online studies can be comparable to, and sometimes better than, that obtained. by more traditional methods involving a lab, paper questionnaires, or telephone interviews (Birnbaum, 2001; Krantz Dalal, 2000; McGraw, Tew, Williams, 2000). There are other advantages of Web research. On the Web, people can be tested at any time and place, laboratory rooms or physically present experimenters are not necessary (so experimenter effects remain constant), and automated data handling reduces both the labor and error of data coding and entry (Birnbaum Reips, 2005; G?ritz Schumacher, 2000).In addition, the Web method allows one to collect large samples inexpensively, which makes it possible to draw clear conclusions and to check their generality to different subsamples tested (Birnbaum, 1999; Reips, 2002). An example of an HTML Web form is given in Birnbaum (2000). Such an HTML page can be placed on a server, where the participant can view it and fill in answers by typing in information and clicking on choices. When the participant is finished, he or she can then click on a button to send the data. Birnbaum’s (2000) surveyWiz and factorWiz are freely available programs that make it easy to create HTML forms for simple surveys and within subjects factorial experiments. Reips and Neuhaus (2002) have developed WEXTOR, which is useful for generating Web experiments tha
