The amount of money a research participant typically receives can vary depending on several factors. These factors include the nature of time commitment required, and the level of involvement needed from the participant.

In general, compensation for research participation can range from a small token gift or reimbursement for expenses to a significant payment. For shorter and less demanding studies, participants may receive a modest amount of money or a small gift as a thank you for their time and effort.

On the other hand, more complex and time-consuming studies that require a higher level of participation may provide participants with a more substantial payment. This could be in the form of an hourly rate or a lump sum payment that reflects the level of commitment required.
