Abstract: In 1986, the sociologist Lee Sproull suggested that behavioural science researchers consider 'a new tool for data collection: electronic mail'. This seems quaint, forty years later, when doing science on the Internet is commonplace. In this talk, I will show how gamification and citizen-science approaches can make research fun and motivating for participants, yielding rich, naturalistic data sampled from diverse populations at massive scales. I will draw on citizen-science studies of auditory perception run at https://themusiclab.org to present the ideas behind gamification, techniques to carry it out, and thoughts on how it has changed my approach to science.
