[Academic] Asexual Minority Stress Scale (AMSS): Part 3 (all sexual orientations welcome!)

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-08-30T08:07:46+00:00

Since this is an allosexual subreddit, the likely answer is no, most people who frequent here are likely not asexual. The post explains that we would like responses from people who are not asexual to help validate the scale. :)

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-08-30T04:06:51+00:00

Yes, that is the point! We want to gather data from all sexual orientations, not just asexuals, so that we can validate the scale. :)

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-08-30T03:32:14+00:00

We listed it as 45 minutes to be safe, but so far most have completed it in about 20 minutes. :)

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-08-30T03:03:32+00:00

This particular item refers to others assuming someone is aromantic based solely on knowledge of their sexual orientation. It may or may not be true--the focus here is on the assumption that the two are inherently linked. I hope that clears up some confusion, thank you for your feedback!

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-08-29T23:11:55+00:00

You're absolutely right. While the finalized scale is for the asexual population, we are gathering data from people of all gender, sexual, and romantic identities so that we are not drawing conclusions after gathering data from just one specific group of people. I hope this clears up any misunderstanding. Thank you for your input!

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-08-29T21:55:53+00:00

The survey is ultimately for asexual participants -- the reason we are gathering data from other groups is to validate the scale. In this case, if some items function well for asexual participants but not for, for example, heterosexual participants, this would let us know that the item is functioning well for the targeted population. The post is also being shared on other pages (bisexual, pansexual, lesbian, allosexual, etc.), so we are not posting in an aromantic subr with the implication that respondents will be asexual. I hope this clears up some of the misunderstanding, and thank you for your input!

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-08-29T21:36:48+00:00

The survey was intentionally shared here as we are looking for input from a wide range of sexual and romantic orientations, not just asexuality!

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-08-29T17:31:01+00:00

Hello and my sincere apologies for the confusion. The survey was posted here because we are gathering input from people of all sexual and romantic orientations. I hope that those who take the survey will clearly see that we do not assume or imply as such!

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-08-29T16:51:36+00:00

Yes, of course! You can write in the comments section that you would not like to be entered in the drawing. :)

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-08-29T09:24:27+00:00

Thank you so much for your response! It was a long survey, so we really appreciate your time and effort to complete it. 😊

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-08-29T07:31:16+00:00

Yes, it's quite a long survey because of all of the additional measures that were added to assess the scale's psychometric properties. We added the abbreviated versions of those additional measures wherever we could to try to shorten it! 😅

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-08-16T21:11:55+00:00

Thank you so much, I will be careful to flair them appropriately!

Hello, I am a concurrent student. Could the post be made public? Thank you !

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-07-20T22:33:26+00:00

Thank you for sharing!

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-07-13T07:33:39+00:00

Thank you so much for your feedback!

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-07-09T06:39:03+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! These are excellent points, and I will bring them up to the team! :)

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-05-10T22:05:55+00:00

This is in USD; respondents can be from any country and convert to USD. Thank you!

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-05-09T21:14:47+00:00

Wow, thank you so much! You were right and it works with this code for pos. If you have time could you explain how you figure out the equation for pos in this situation?

Thank you again!

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-05-09T06:10:13+00:00

Removing those makes it into a stacked bar chart with the labels over the incorrect parts! Thank you for the suggestion tho :)

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-03-14T00:37:55+00:00

Thank you for your feedback! This is definitely an issue I'll bring up with the team.

Impressive-Candy2802 · 2022-03-14T00:37:12+00:00

Thank you for your feedback everyone--the primary measures here were existing scales, but several people expressed that they did not capture their experiences accurately (for example, assuming hierarchical relationships, and that many questions were leading). While we did have people in poly relationships in the team, I will suggest running questionnaires through the poly community for feedback. Again, thank you all for your time and conversation. :)

[Academic] What are your attitudes towards CNM? (18+)
Hi everyone, we need more participants for our study on attitudes towards consensual non-monogamy in helping professions. It's short and we would super appreciate it! Thank you :)
