BooJaka Posted August 21, 2007 It's pretty interesting. Why do we play video games? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vimes Posted August 21, 2007 Done.. the first agree/ disagree question is quite strange :there's a lot of stuff overlapping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted August 21, 2007 Totally disagree - Strongly disagree - Disagree - Neither disagree or agree - Agree - Strongly agree - Totally agree *sigh* meh... a research about how gamers think they are affected by video games. that's like asking a patient how sick he think he is. it would be better if the people feel the same way with books and/or movies.

DanJW Posted August 21, 2007 That overlappoing is necessary for good scientific surveys - since most people don't really know their own mind, you have to ask the same question several different ways to get a decent idea of the "truth". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoannaDark Posted August 21, 2007 the overlapping is to avoid something called acquiescence response set - which just means agreeing with every question outta laziness. psychologists cunningly think that if they rephrase a question and you answer it differently it means you're a waster whose results don't bear analysing. this is why i don't use questionair=hey a spider just fell outta nowhere on my laptop between two keys - how the hell do i get him out!

Thrik Posted August 21, 2007 God. I absolutely hate surveys that have about five answers to everything. Out of protest I just limited it to the 'Disagree', 'Dunno', and 'Agree' options. Appropriately reminds me of game review scoring. :fart: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
