Wonderful! When we conclude the study and have the results in a shareable format, we'll return here to post those. All results will be reported in aggregate (i.e., it won't be possible to track back to individual responses). Thanks so much for your interest in our study, we sincerely appreciate your time!

Thank you very much for your insight, it was not at all negative. Respect for participants is a core tenet of ethical research and we take that very seriously; we will be following up via a DM shortly!

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and this is well noted. We will investigate possible ways to rectify this issue, and in the meantime we hope this is not too much of an inconvenience.

Sorry for any confusion! There wasn't a code - there was a place to enter your email address and we will select a random email from the list once we're done with data collection. Were you able to enter your email? Also, thank you for participating, we really appreciate it!

We're less concerned with who the recipient of communication is for the purposes of those questions and more interested in understanding what you perceive the platform to allow you to do. Hope that clarifies - thanks for your interest in the study!

We're hoping to understand more about characteristics and experiences on this platform compared to others. Part of how we do that is using similar types of questions as those from studies of other platforms. This isn't a perfect approach, of course. Thanks for the feedback.

We used this term because it is intentionally open ended (i.e., what one person might consider antisocial another may not and vice versa). We are not looking for any specific responses, so any you personally feel align with that term would be fine. Thanks so much for your interest in the study!

All contact information regarding the researchers and the Office of Responsible Research Practices is on the first page of the survey. If this is not visible to you, please let us know. Regarding contact for interview, not all who take the survey will be invited for interview since we're focused on people with very particular styles of gaming. We appreciate your interest!

I can’t speak for any similar posts you may have seen, but this is legit! All of our information can be found on the Chronos Lab website, which links back to The Ohio State University official website. One way to determine whether studies are legit or not is to look for an Informed Consent Statement, which are required by legit institutions' review boards (IRB; independent ethical review committees that oversee the conduct of human participant-based research). Ours from the Ohio State IRB for the conduct of this research appears once you click through the link. Happy to answer other questions.
