Looking for game research participants (talked with Patrick, got permission to post)

Anyone who plays games has heard a lot about the research into video game addiction. I’ve read most of it, and I’ve found that there’s the idea that spending a lot of time playing or thinking about games makes a person addicted. I think it’s more complicated than that, and I’m looking for other people’s experiences to help me to make that argument.
I’m looking for anyone who a) is at least 18 years old and b) plays video games. What type of games you play doesn’t matter; World of Warcraft, Call of Duty, Bejeweled or whatever else you play are all useful, and whether you play on a console, a computer or on your smart phone, I’d like to hear your honest responses to questions about your game play habits and mental health. The survey is designed so that your answers will be kept anonymous.
If you participate, you can choose to be entered in a drawing for one of several $20 Amazon gift cards. The odds of winning one of the cards is one in a hundred and eighty.
If you’re interested, follow the link at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/KHWS3P2 and fill the survey out. It takes between fifteen and twenty minutes, depending on how fast you click.
