[opensuse-project] Participation in Research online survey
Dear Lizards, My name is Athanasios-Ilias Rousinopoulos (Zoumpis) and I am a PhD Candidate working in the Software Engineering Research Group at the Alpen-Adria-University Klagenfurt (http://serg.aau.at). Together with my supervisor Prof.Dr. Martin Pinzger and as part of my ongoing research in the software repository mining field, I am performing an online survey related to the sentiment analysis of open source developers/contributors. With this e-mail I would like to invite you to participate in the online survey. The corresponding survey can be found at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/7HN8FWW Thanks in advance for your participation in this survey!

Actually, it is. A non-traceable one, that is. All of them I tried asked for a phone number, including google. I only found one somewhere, webmail only, valid for 15 days, unless you pay - in which case they have your credit card number and real data, which breaks the idea of non been traced. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

so that anybody can answer as many times he wants (however I don't see why one should do this) by the way the questions are difficult to understand. beginning: (...)assign scores in the following 4 questions and in the question: * "2. In terms of sentiment, how positive is the score expressed in the text?" I understand the first "score", but not the second one. Does it mean "give a score to 'how positive is the text'"? jdd -- http://www.dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

I found that as well - it was difficult to understand what the question was even about, really. The other thing that was confusing (I ended up bailing out after 14 of these questions) was that the progress meter seemed to change with every question - but I didn't get nearer completion, I seemed to get farther away from it. Because it was difficult to determine how much was left, I eventually quit as I have other things I need to get done today.

I knew a bit about it :-) But no, what I want is an email address that can not be traced to me, except on court order, preferably on European laws and land, which I can use on sites requesting one for registration, so that /they/ don't know who I really are, and that if they try to contact me I do get that email. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

Well, now you know more.

And that is entirely what you get using something like Mailinator. They don't ask for registration at all. You just decide on an address - like arguesabouteverything@mailinator.com - plug that in, and if/when a message goes to that address, it's accepted. You can go to arguesabouteverything.mailinator.com to see if someone's sent something to the address, but there's no registration needed. Try it rather than debating it. Go read up more on it, because apparently you haven't yet - because you're still debating it. The first question in their FAQ explicitly states you don't sign up for the service.

Hi again, All the data are being treated as confidential and as anonymous.The only reason for asking the email address is for the participation in the draw and help in the research in the future.It is clearly stated on the Introduction part "We would like to ask you to rate as many bug reports as you wish (rating 1 bug report should take no longer than 3-4 mins). Note, participants who fill in more than 10 bug reports will participate in a draw to win one of the five 50€ Amazon vouchers! Don't forget to fill in your email address below if you are you interested to know more about sentiment analysis research and help us in the future!"
Because it was difficult to determine how much was left, I eventually quit as I have other things I need to get done today.
You don't have to fill in the entire survey it is already mentioned
before.Furthermore you can exit the survey at any moment by clicking
the button "Exit this survey".
Finally I have got many responses without any complain on how to
assign the score on the texts...
Thanks,
Ilias R.

I'm not interested in any draws. And no, the page did not allow me to go on without filling the email, it insisted that it was mandatory. So I quitted. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

I missed that.

I didn't miss that. But, like I said, the progress bar made it impossible to tell how many items were left. I'm happy to participate in research surveys like this from time to time, but I like to know roughly how much time it'll take to do it, and how far I am into the survey. When it comes back and says I'm 70% done, and then after answering a group of questions and says I'm 48% done, something's wrong with the survey.
Finally I have got many responses without any complain on how to assign the score on the texts...
I just provided feedback that it was confusing for me. I'm not new to surveys - I've spent a fair amount of time over the years working with customer survey creation and data interpretation, and have a little background in human analytics. I can tell you that very frequently, you won't get feedback from people saying that they didn't understand how to fill out the form or answer the questions, but that doesn't mean they / did/ understand it. Sometimes that's not important, though - for example, on a survey that I'm extremely familiar with (for determining learning effectiveness for training classes), a common question is "in the next 6 months, how much do you expect to have improved your understanding of this topic?" with a series of percentages. Nobody really knows how to answer that question, but the company that creates this survey has millions of responses and has figured out how to adjust the responses (respondents always overestimate this value, and that overestimation can be determined statistically with sufficient data combined from post-class surveys and a 6-month follow-up survey that shows actual results). I'm going to guess that you're not going to have millions of responses, so it's important for your research that the questions be clear and how one responds to them is also clear. What differentiates a "1" from a "2" on your survey? I have no idea. I doubt any of your respondents will either, so, for example, while I responded "2" on some things where there was a single response within the comment thread where it seemed someone was mildly frustrated (which wasn't a choice, so I selected "anger" instead, IIRC), someone else might see that as being worthy of a '5' response. Because it would appear you have no way of normalizing the data, that means ultimately your data is not likely to have any meaningful value. I could be wrong about that. Maybe you'll have enough data, or maybe you can account for that uncertainty in some way that isn't unclear to me. In which case, I wish you luck with your research. Do with my feedback what you will.
Thanks,
Ilias R.
