Conducting a survey

Hello!

I'm a third year highschool student doing a science fair project on video game addiction.

Currently, the ASA does not classify video gaming to be psychologically addicting. Speaking as an ex-hardcore gamer (>< Oh gosh I did like 100 hours a week[that's roughly 14 hours a day] playing two MMOs, which I'm too embarrassed to mention), I wish to disprove ASA's claims.

The school of thought surrounding videogame addiction (specifically MMOs), is primarily that in an imaginary online environment, psychological needs are being met.

For my project, I wish to conduct a survey of 500 players at least, from diffrent sources (forums, in game, in real life)

 

I am pleading with you to please complete this survey!



 

Please answer

1. What is your gender?

2. What is your age?

3. What is your ethnicity?

4. What MMORPG do you play?

5. How much time do you spend a week playing?

6. How many times have you tried to quit an MMORPG, only to return to it shortly (a week-6 months) after?

 

Please rate on a scale from 1-10, 1 being nothing, 10 being all/completely/everything

7. How much of the happiness in your life is derived from the game?

8. How much harm has personal relationships suffered due to gaming?

9. How much harm has your work/schoolwork suffered due to gaming?

10.. How difficult is it for you to limit play time?

 

Like srsly, i'm failing this class, i need to do good on this -_- so thanks for completing the survey!

 

If you do not wish to publicly post this, please feel free to private message me the results, or email me the results at pnoy_aco@msn.com

 

Thankyou!

    Don't you worry little buddy. You're dealing with a man of honor. However, honor requires a higher percentage of profit
