    Default Survey for politically interested Twitter users

    Hi everyone,

    I'm currently writing my phd. The study is being conducted in the context of my dissertation. If you have a Twitter account it would be a great help if you may take part in the survey. If you are interested you will find the link on my twitter profile jana_254.

    The goal of the questionnaire is to investigate personal behavior of politically interested people on Twitter. You will be asked several questions related to your demographics and your Twitter usage. Furthermore, an experiment will follow. You will see a Twitter page and be required to act as if you were on your Twitter account.

    All in all, the survey should take approximately 30 minutes. In return for completing the questionnaire you can win a USD 300 voucher and receive the outcomes if you are interested.

    When you don't have a Twitter account you could help by recommending the survey to acquaintances, friends or colleagues that might meet the criteria.

    Thank you for any help you can provide.

    Jana

    Tell us a bit more in a few more posts, anybody have questions for them so that they can gather enough posts to link us up to their survey? If there is interest, it shouldn't take too long.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    Thanks a lot for your reply. Shure, I can tell a little bit more. As mentioned, my questionnaire contains an experiment. I'm very excited about this part of my survey. It cost me a lot of effort to program it in ruby on rails or actually learn ruby on rails while implementing the experiment. It shows a simulation of a Twitter page and every respondent actually can expand the tweets about politics and open the shown link, retweet or unretweet the Tweets, favorite or unfavorite them, reply to the Followee, who wrote the Tweet, follow or unfollow the listed accounts and even write own Tweets. Of course all the activities in the simulation will NOT affect the personal Twitter profile of the respondent. Everyone will be asked to act as if they were on their Twitter profile. Anonymity of every person and their answers or actions within the simulation is taken for granted. I will use them for research purposes only and looking forward to the results.

    While you are at it Grind, invent a new gif for how hilarious Darla's comment is.

    It is funny: that although I will write my dissertation about my research, it is really hard to find more facts that I could tell without influencing my results.
