Help me choose an incentive for my survey that increases response without distorting results. Audience: [AUDIENCE]. Survey length and topic: [LENGTH_AND_TOPIC]. Budget: [BUDGET]. Rules that apply (employee surveys, regulated sectors, giveaways, tax): [RULES_TO_CONSIDER].

Return:
1. Options table: Incentive type (none, small guaranteed payment, prize draw, donation to charity, results summary, early access, discount) | Expected effect on response rate | Effect on who responds (bias risk) | Cost per complete | Administration burden | Legal or ethical notes [VERIFY] | Fit for my audience (1-5).
2. A recommendation with reasons and an estimate of cost, using the numbers I gave (show the arithmetic and label as estimates).
3. Distortion risks: people who answer only for the reward, speeding, duplicate responses, and how to detect them (attention check, time check, duplicate check).
4. Wording: invitation text of 60 words that mentions the incentive honestly and a thank-you message.
5. A plan to compare response and data quality with and without an incentive in a small pilot.

Do not advise using incentives that could pressure employees or reveal identities in anonymous surveys.

Verify every fact, figure and claim in the output against your own records or the official documentation, and have a qualified professional check anything with legal, safety or financial consequences before you rely on or publish it.
