From 'The Grammarist': "Analyze is preferred in American and Canadian English. Analyse is the preferred spelling outside North America." There are rumors of English-speaking countries outside North America. I'm sure they don't amount to much but maybe the OP is from one a them ;-).

Marigold Devin Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I also spell it "analyse" here in the UK (although I spell potential "potential" and not "potencial" as seems to be the case in your survey). ****** Petty spelling errors aside, one day you may make something of yourself in this big old wide real world, as a psychologist or something else, and will be able to stick two fingers up at anyone who may have seemed to be flippant towards you while you were on your way up the food chain. However, I think it is important to let you know that I also perused your survey questions, and really do not believe you will obtain anything of any value towards your psychology course with such questions. When you are wishing to know about the people in a particular society, the best way is to actually immerse yourself within that society. I think it is possible that you have seen recent newspaper headlines about a particular set of parents who have been charged with neglecting their young child because they were spending too much time immersed in Second Life. People like that are undoubtedly in the minority. Looking through your questionnaire, and I am urged to add that a lot of us don't have just one avatar. Its not that we have multiple personality disorder (or maybe we do as I'm speaking on behalf of at least six people) its just if we had dolls as kids (or even if we didn't) sometimes its nice to pick a new toy out of the box once in a while. Another question you could have asked, along with the "how many hours do you use Second Life in a week", was "do you use Second Life more or less now than you did one, two, three years ago". Going onto page two, and I really gave up here - make of that what you will. You seem to have repeated question 27 as question 29, and there are a lot of careless little errors. I don't actually understand question 23 "I move forward in the way I am" . For these reasons, I would doubt very much that you would get many people actually wanting to go further than page one of your questionnaire.

Perrie Juran Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 After asking most of these questions about "yourself' it then switches to "your Avatar." Whatever this survey is about I doubt it is for a college paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaraBaska Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 Thank you for your reply and insights. I know my english isn`t perfect, I am not a native english speaker (I am from Slovakia). I will try to correct all my mistakes. I used SL very short time, my computer is not very efficient. I consulted my questionnaire with a few users of SL. I know that some people have more avatars and that`s the reason why I requested you to pick the one you use the most. Question 27 is about food and question 29 is more general, it includes also exercise, smoking etc. Question 23 concerns you want to be better and better person. I have no budget, no team of people and this research is one of my school tasks. I understand people can consider it as a low quality research. My possibilities are limited. If you think some questions don`t fit to your avatar, reply "never", I know that avatars are virtual I just want to know about self-care in SL, I don`t want to prove something special.

Thats what were are trying to get across to you.. There is no self care in SL. It's not like the sim that have to eat, shower and work. My av can sit on the couch watching Youtube al day and not have to move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your response has added a new perspective to your questionnaire, and I have now completed this for you. I still believe it will not really add anything of value to your psychology course, but it might provide some fun answers. Now I know that you know that avatars are virtual, and you know that we know that our avatars are virtual, and therefore they do not eat, or have to worry about their weight, or fitness, I felt more comfortable about answering your questions. And now that I have reached page three, and see there is space for comments, I have left you comments there, which I hope you and your college tutor will take on board. Good luck with your studies.

TaraBaska Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 I understand that you don`t have to do any self-care activities but you can. You don`t do it but some people maybe do. I don`t know... That`s the reason why I do this research. And there is a physical and psychical self-care. It`s not just about eating and showering. For example you can do (psychical) self-care activity when you are chatting with someone and you don`t realize it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
