You sure have an interesting topic for your Extended Essay (assume that's what it is), mine 4 years ago was pretty geeky but not quite the same level. Get a good advisor and good luck!

  ya its for my extended essay and im really enjoying it(weird i know) but im probably heading into Business+Physiology for Uni so something to do with motivation was logical for me. Not really happy with my supervisor but im getting it checked by other people as well. What did you do yours on?

    It was an essay for Business and Management advising a internet services company on whether to invest in creating a certain website, mainly looking at the financials and some limited real marketing data. Thanks to Gmail I just found it again, and looking back it's pretty sad, but is a good convincing study. The factors (mainly financial) are not what I would look at if I did it again, but that was partly my very good advisor's pressuring. I had an idea, but it had to be fit within the framework of the "extended essay" framework. Oh, and I'm a senior in college, doing "Technical Information Science), hoping to graduate this spring.

I'll be curious to see the outcome. (you misspelled necessary in the last paragraph).

per olalonde, you'll probably find this post a lot more upvotes and survey participant conversions if you "open source" the survey. right now you're basically asking people to support closed/private research.. and not just any people.. you're asking the open source community -- the demographic i'd suppose least likely to respond to a closed survey. based on the current parameters my participation does not follow.

Lack of a 'None of the above' option makes at least two of the questions meaningless. Perhaps you might wander across the campus to the psych dept or where ever folks actually make and use surveys, sit at someones feet and learn a bit before you try this again. Were I anyone in a supervisory position over this, things would not go well...
