Populations can enable an Exclusivity Restriction setting that allows it to prevent people in that population from being added to any other population, such as only allowing a specific team access to participants in a custom exclusive population. This setting can only be turned on when there are no people in the population.Segment: Dynamic sub groups with a population that are determined by the saved filters on the segment. People are dynamically added or removed from a segment based on the filters.

New participants who sign up for research through sign-up forms are added directly to a list.

For example, a study may have a property for “Interview Start Date” that is not included in the person record.Templates: A reusable set of components that can be used to create a study.
