We're doing an Academic Study on Boredom, give us 5 minutes?
This feels like a startup is doing marketing research to justify their product.
"Do you think there is something missing from the internet?" [Maybe like our site?]
"What recurring sites do you visit?" [Who is our competition?]
"You find $30.00 on the ground, what are you going to do with it?" [Would you maybe spend it with us?]
How about asking things like:
- What parts of the internet are truly useful to you? Are there any compromises that those benefits introduce?
- What parts of the internet are harmful to you? What are those things attempting to accomplish?
- What could we take away from the internet? How would we do that?
This is not an "academic study". No institutional review board of a university would approve this.
> How generally do you pass time when you're bored?
I’m never bored.
If this is an academic study, why do you offer a cat option in the gender question?
The irony on this was not missed.
Is there any particular reason why gender listed the way it is?
