What do I/my child get for being a Panel Member?

As a registered Panel member you/your child will have the opportunity to express your/his or her opinions, views, and wishes to Gurlpolls® about a variety of topics! Each time you/your child completes a survey you/will be rewarded with points that that accumulate in your household account and can be redeemed periodically for cash or gifts when your balance is sufficient. Please click here for the details on the rewards program: Rewards


What is expected of you/your child as a Panel Member?

Most Panel activities will simply involve our asking you or your child (via email) to complete a brief survey at AmericanGirlForum.com.

No sensitive information will be asked of your child.

The surveys are designed to be easily understood, interesting and fun to do. Kids really enjoy them!

We are also interested in talking to parents from time to time to get their perspective.

Can I have more than one daughter ages 7-12 participate?

Yes, as long as each girl ages 7-12 resides within your household, is registered with the Panel, has access to the Internet at home, and is actively involved in online activities.

It is unlikely but it is possible that in some cases it may be important to only have one child per household participate in a survey, in that case, we will target the alert toward the age child we need most or randomly select one.
