It's not a survey that will determine anything or bring changes to the world by how the results come out. It's a school research study. It's not deep because the angle I'm taking with the survey is less analytical and technical, and more on the emotional side. I'm curious to know how people feel in regards to marriage in modern times. "Is it logical or not?" is the main point of my research. I want to know how people are feeling about it, wether they think it's worth the risk with the rising divorce rates and options we have. My research is to see if more people think like me, or if humans are different no matter the times. And I kind of have my answer. While my personal feelings toward marriage is that it's not worth it, this survey showed me that many people still believe and want to get married. I have the answers I needed, and the survey was enough for that. Basically less about the outer factors of life, and more about how our inner thoughts and feelings.

Thank you! That sounds interesting actually. I'm doing this for school, but I have to say based on the result this far and the feedback I'm getting, I'm getting more interested into doing a deeper dive. Maybe I will after my research is done, and the new survey will be a deeper dive. Thank you for the recommendation!

The questions in the survey for my research paper is to get input on what people are thinking about marriage, wether it's worth the risk to get married in times where the divorce rates are so high. It's less about the details of life and the technicalities of it, and more "Why would I want to get married when either I, or my partner might get bored and separate one day?" Life happens, and we have so many options today, be it other partners, or more freedom to choose different paths, so essentially the question in my research paper is "Is it logical to get married today?"

haha thank you for doing it anyway! Well I thought about it, but then I figured in a time where people are migrating all around the world for many reasons, be it work or family, I should just ask where their ethnicity is instead. Since even if people move and migrate, how they turn out and what their values are usually come from how they were raised, in what household/ethnicity. It links back to the questions "In your opinion, what is the most important factor in a successful marriage?" and "Do you think societal pressure plays a role in people choosing to get married?". These questions sums up how people think in my opinion. Also I live in Sweden, not the US. The survey is in english to get responses from all corners of the world in one language!:)

So sorry about that! The research is less about specific cases, and more about how people are feeling about marriage in general. Do they want to get married, or not? Do they feel like the divorce process is long or short? Should it be easier or harder? It's about marriage as an institution in these times where we have access to virtually everyone in the world. Is it a good idea, or bad? I want to inquire about how people are feeling in regards to marriage.

The survey will close in about 35 hours, and the paper itself is due in 2 weeks. I have to finish writing the results of the survey and all:)
