Would you kindly fill out this questionnaire about movies

Nibble

Hi, my friend is doing some postgraduate research, and she needs 20 people to fill out a very short questionnaire consisting of 10 multiple-choice questions about your movie-watching habits. I was hoping that some people here wouldn't mind taking a few minutes of their time to help her out.

The questionnaire can be downloaded from here, then filled out electronically (just highlight your selections, and don't worry about the signature) and emailed to fourbits@gmail.com . I'll make an update if/when I've got enough. |EDIT| Oh yeah, please put "questionnaire" somewhere in the subject so it's easier to find.

WOULD YOU KINDLY

Aldo

Only 20 people? That's not enough for most statistical procedures. I'll send it in anyway, but please tell her to make sure that she can actually *do* anything with this without having to work with inferior methods.

While we're at it, I spotted more than one spelling error in the document, if this is supposed to be serious research they should have spellchecked it more thoroughly.

...

Right, after filling out some more questions I find this gem:

7) Do you like artistic films or commercial films?
A. Artistic films   B. Commercial films   C. Independent films

hey that's 3 answers to an either/or question. :P

This questionnaire is complete rubbish and I'm surprised they didn't notice it themselves.

*edit: if you hadn't been around since 2k3 I would have assumed you were fishing for mail addresses.

I just assumed that she would be recruiting other friends to find more people. I don't know for sure. As for the the other stuff... if I say she's from China, does that make it any better? :P

Thanks for filling it out!

I noticed she's Chinese and it's good that she's studying abroad and all, but that doesn't really absolve her from not having to follow basic grammar and spelling rules. A good questionnaire nets you more respondents, when people have to read every question twice before they understand it they might just think to themselves: "fuck it" and off they go.

I'm liking the BioShock reference.

Ha, thanks.
