      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Developers Prompt LLMs for Coding&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Hi everyone,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I’m conducting an academic research study on how developers naturally interact with open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) while working on real coding tasks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This study is time-sensitive and we are only recruiting 10 participants.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Compensation: $15&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;++ Bonus Incentive: Among early participants, 2 people will be randomly selected to receive an additional $10 bonus&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
What This Study Is About&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;How developers write prompts for coding tasks&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;How they refine requests and interact with LLMs during real-world development&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Submit:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Full LLM chat logs (shareable link or uploaded file)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Screen recording (for research purposes only)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Short exit interview after completing all tasks&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
You can participate through the following link: &lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://forms.gle/bzKqBsYBcaZJ6Xti6" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://forms.gle/bzKqBsYBcaZJ6Xti6&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Thank you!&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>[Paid Research | $15 | Jan 4 Deadline] How Developers Prompt LLMs for Coding (No Skill Evaluation)</title>
      <dc:creator>hsjeong</dc:creator>

      <guid>https://forem.com/_19586fa8d50b6948b7962/paid-research-15-jan-4-deadline-how-developers-prompt-llms-for-coding-no-skill-evaluation-5fii</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Hi everyone,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I’m a researcher conducting an academic study on how developers interact with Large Language Models (LLMs) during coding tasks in real-world settings.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This study is NOT about evaluating your coding skills.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We focus only on your prompts and interaction style with LLMs.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What we study&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;How developers prompt and communicate with LLMs&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Interaction patterns during coding-related tasks&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;NOT code quality or programming ability&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Important clarifications&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is NOT a coding test&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is NO evaluation of your programming skills&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;You do NOT need to submit code for grading or review&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;We only collect prompts, conversations, and LLM outputs&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What participation involves&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Completing 5 short coding-related tasks using your usual prompting style&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;You may use:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Open-source LLMs (e.g., Code LLaMA, StarCoder, DeepSeek, etc.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;OR commercial models (e.g., GPT, Claude, Gemini)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Screen &amp;amp; audio recording during the session (research use only)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;A brief exit interview about your experience&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Duration&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Up to 60 minutes total&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Compensation&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$15 after completing all study tasks and the exit interview&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Recruitment timeline&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;We aim to recruit 20 participants by January 4&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sessions will be scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eligibility&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;18 years or older&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Experience using LLMs for coding (any skill level welcome)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Data use &amp;amp; ethics&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Data will be used solely for academic research&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Findings may be published in research venues&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;All recordings will remain confidential and used only by the research team&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

      <title>[Research Study] How Developers Use LLMs for Code Generation</title>
      <dc:creator>hsjeong</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Sun, 28 Dec 2025 10:45:19 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://forem.com/_19586fa8d50b6948b7962/research-study-how-developers-use-llms-for-code-generation-open-source-models-only-4aj</link>
      <guid>https://forem.com/_19586fa8d50b6948b7962/research-study-how-developers-use-llms-for-code-generation-open-source-models-only-4aj</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;We are recruiting developers for a research study examining how real-world developers use Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate code.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Participation Involves:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Completing &lt;strong&gt;5 coding tasks&lt;/strong&gt; using your usual prompting style and preferred LLMs (open-source models only)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can use an &lt;strong&gt;open-source model&lt;/strong&gt; similar to the one you use at work, as long as it doesn’t contain any company-specific fine-tuning and can be run safely on your own environment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Providing your prompts, interactions, and LLM-generated code for research purposes&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Screen and audio recording during the study session&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Completing a brief exit interview regarding your experience with LLM-generated code&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Data Use:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Collected data will be used to analyze developer prompt patterns&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Research findings may be published in academic venues&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;All recordings will be used solely for research and will not be shared outside the research team&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Duration &amp;amp; Compensation:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Up to 60 minutes total&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;$15 compensation after completing all study tasks and the exit interview&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Eligibility &amp;amp; Voluntary Participation:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Participants must be 18 years of age or older&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Participants must successfully complete the screening questions included in the survey&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
