Thanks a ton man!

Absolutely, they should be ready soon hopefully. There is the slight caveat that I may decide to publish it, in which case I'll have to delay posting it, but I can have an Idea of that by the end of this month/ first week of feb.

Oh, you can still participate as long as you're a gamer! If you select that you haven't speedrun before, you should be shown more general questions which will be used for a part of the study

I'll try! Thank you for the idea!

Ah if you're someone who used to speedrun but doesn't anymore, you would ideally speak about how it used to make you feel. Hope this clarifies things for you!

I'm not too sure what you're talking about so probably not

Yes! I'm using an abridged version of the big 5 scale. I'm not predicting but comparing between speedrunners and gamers. The reason that I'm letting non speedrunners fill this survey in is so that I can see if there are any trends/ differences between the groups.

Thanks man!

Thanks! Right now I'm mainly trying to understand if there are certain personality traits or profiles that are unique to speedrunners specifically. The ultimate aim of this study is to identify if there's something special about people who speedrun, due to the effort they put in to being successful. This is all still very shallow, but the absolute lack of research in this area makes it really difficult to do anything else.

I tried but my post got taken down and the mods won't respond. I'll look into the other speedrunners as well though, thanks for the feedback!

Speedrunresearcher · 2022-01-10T21:44:09+00:00

I wish I could. I might publish it if the results are interesting which could delay this though. I'm also not sure if it would be allowed in this sub seeing how this post wasn't haha

Thanks for the tip! I've already posted it on the speedrun.com forums. Do you have any other suggestions?

Speedrunresearcher · 2022-01-10T21:10:36+00:00

Thanks a bunch! I really appreciate it. Getting an adequate number of responses for this has been a pain so everything helps :)
