Short survey for a Games class

edited January 2011 in Games and Technology
This is a homework assignment for an intro to games class I'm taking. It's anonymous, and only 9 questions. the survey was designed by my professor and we were assigned to gather 10 respondents each. The results are for his personal use only and will not be published or analyzed beyond simple frequency distributions. So, if you could spare 20 seconds I'd greatly appreciate it :) Here's the survey monkey link:

    Tell your professor that I think the question "Are video games addicting: Yes/No" is terrible. :P
    Isn't any activity addicting to the right person?

    EvilMonkey: Yes, I know. I'm studying Sociology, and there are all KINDS of problems with this 'survey'. But, it's an assignment so it's gotta be done.

    It's not for actual research, so it is not critical that it is designed well. I talked to him about it, and its more of a questionnaire exercise to show students that there are differing opinions about gaming. As a student who has done 2 survey based research projects for actual research, it bugs the crap out of me. But, it's not for statistical analysis, so the standards are lower. But, either way, thanks for the input and the help! :)

    Did you get mod approval for this thread? If not, I would hurry up and do that before you get jailed/banned.

    I took the survey too.

    What is this survey trying to prove by asking my age and if I am married?

    Didn't realize I needed approval. If I stepped out of bounds here I apologize.

    Anyway, I got more responses than I needed, so thanks everyone! This thread can be frozen, deleted, whatever.
