Please provide all the following information:
- Context. Provide a short paragraph with some background context for your request, please include links to relevant material.
As part of the article guidance initiative, there is currently an A/B experiment planned. It is expected that the experiment will launch in Q4, lasting the duration of 1-2mo (current estimate).
- Description.What is your request about?
The experiment mentioned above should give the team an understanding of how the guided article support impacts deletion/survival rates of new articles (potentially also abandon rates for new articles started) compared to the current baseline (no support). However, this quant experiment will not be able to reveal why deletion/survival rates are higher/lower/the same as for the current baseline. Thus, the team is requesting qualitative research support that can complement the A/B test in order to give a fuller picture of the impact and results of the guided article support.
- Expected Deliverable. What is the ideal outcome or result of your request?
Report and presentation/discussion of the results from the qualitative research sessions.
- Estimated Effort. Please provide an estimate of the amount of work needed to complete this task, if known.
Should be timed in coordination with A/B test, currently expected to launch in roughly mid-Q4. Can possibly be designed as a lightweight project.
