Mercor is recruiting participants for the Youth Well-being Project, a research study led by Stanford University in collaboration with Bocconi University, focused on how smartphones and digital tools affect children and families.
📋 Applications are open now. We're accepting applications at this stage to finalize and confirm participants for the upcoming batch, which begins in January. Apply now to lock in your spot — selected applicants will have their place confirmed ahead of the January start.
✅ Who can take part — please read carefully
- You are a parent/guardian based in the United States
- You have a child aged 9–13
- Your child has their own smartphone with an active SIM card (a working phone number). This is required — the study involves installing an app on the child's phone, so a tablet, Wi‑Fi‑only device, or a phone without a SIM will not qualify.
- You and your child are willing to take part together
- You can pick one child to take part with you — one child per household.*
What you'll be asked to do
- Complete a few short online surveys plus occasional text-message check-ins across the study
