Misc. | Politics & Internet Use Survey

An email that came in over the weekend:

Alan,

My research partner and I are professors at Southern Illinois University-Carbondale and University of Tennessee-Knoxville. We are conducting an online survey that examines the motivations for accessing the Web, weblogs, chat rooms, bulletin boards and other Internet resources for political information.

We are specifically looking for individuals who connect to online political information to fill out our survey. We’re just not able to get word out to enough people about the survey. You’d make our day if you could give us a link to our survey. All we are asking is for an icon that directs your readers to the survey URL. We will be collecting data until 11/16/04.

Our survey has been approved by the University of Tennessee institutional review board and is being conducted for academic purposes only and follows strict privacy protocols. Additionally, all responses are confidential and anonymous.

Your help would be greatly appreciated and we would be more than willing to share our findings with you.

Survey URL:

Sincerely,

Barbara K. Kaye, Ph.D.
Associate Professor
University of Tennessee-Knoxville

Happy to help … check it out!

Thanks for signing in, . Now you can comment. (Click here should you choose to sign out.)

As you post your comment, please mind our simple comment policy: we welcome all perspectives, but require that comments be both civil and respectful. We also ask that you avoid the extensive use of profanity, racist terms (neither of which we consider civil or respectful), and other boorish language.

We reserve the right to delete any comment, and to prohibit you from commenting on this site, if we feel you have broached this policy. As a courtesy, we will first send you an email noting a violation so you understand the boundaries. This will occur only once, however, and should we ban you from our comment forums we expect that ban to be permanent.

We also will frown upon those who suggest that we ban other individuals for voicing unpopular opinions, should those opinions be voiced in a civil and respectful manner. The point of our comment threads is to provide a forum for spirited though civil and respectful discourse … it is not to provide a forum in which everyone will agree with your point of view.

If you can live by these rules, welcome aboard. If not, then we’re sorry it didn’t work out, and thanks for visiting The Command Post.
