Survey help needed for MA Dissertation

[chris_thomas]

Dear Sydenham Town Forum Members

I am completing my Masters Degree in eCommerce at Trinity St David's (Lampeter) University this year.

I am writing my dissertation on how people value, and interact with, local news media.

Therefore, I am asking local people, who use local websites to complete a short (5 minute questionnaire).

The link to the questionnaire can be found at:

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/CPLMSS

NO PERSONAL INFORMATION IS ASKED FOR AND ALL THE INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE WILL BE TREATED IN THE STRICTEST CONFIDENCE

Your answers are important and essential in building an accurate picture of how we interact with local media for academic research.

DEADLINE 28th FEB 2010

Thanks in advance for your for your help

I think there is an error. It is (i think) Q5 about what we read in the local media. When I wrote *other in the answer, i still had to tick a box for another of the possible answers.

Hope that makes sense. after submission, I couldn't reload the survey to give more specifics

Thanks ALIB for spotting that.
I have corrected it now.

Best regards

Chris

Hi Emma
Thanks for the encouragement. Sorry about the work categories. These are standard socio-demographic profiles from the National Office of Statistics, which I agree leave a lot to the imagination and does exclude some of the more obvious jobs. But you are right, I didnt want to ask people their income.

But I should have, with hindsight, included housewife, retired and volunteer.

I'm half way there to my target number of surveys!

Best regards
Chris

I'll stick with the title "Inadequately Described" then! My local council has pigeon-holed me as "Economically Inactive by choice".

Good Luck!

I have extended my deadline by a few more days. Just in case anyone has missed on on my survey
