Dear forum user,
 
We would like to invite you to fill in below questionnaire. In the pursuit of a Methods and Statistics course for social science students at Utrecht University, we would like to ask you some questions concerning online friendships, and a few on some aspects of personality.
 
We are glad we received permission from the forum moderators to place the questionnaire on this forum, and would greatly appreciate it if you would participate. It is important to us that you fill in the questionnaire, because in this study we are specifically interested in MMORPG gamers, above other internet users.
 
The questionnaire is completely anonymous and we will elicit no information that enable us to trace respondents (you). The data will be used only in the pursuit of this course (‘conducting a survey’). Experiences and results from this study may be reason for future improvements and subsequent research. It will take about 10 minutes to complete.
 
For questions, further information, and comments we are available via PM, or below mail address. You can also ask a question or comment by responding to this post. People who are interested in the results can indicate so in the questionnaire.
 
Finally, we want to ask you to ask permission of your parents if you are below legal age in your country (18 in most countries).
 
The link to the questionnaire:

 
 
Regards,
Kimberly,
Reinout (Metuse)

So is this legitimate or a phish/rat?

It appears legitimate, although the correct link is: http://www.thesistools.com/web/?id=383013

 

The one in the OP is copied directly from an email so it's a redirect that asks you to login

I've updated the link to actually work now. As far as we can determine this is a legitimate survey, and we did give these students the green light to post this invitation on our forum.

Completed it, hope the survey goes well!

Thank you for fixing the link, I couldn't figure what was wrong with it.

Also thanks to the people who completed it so far, it is very much appreciated!

Had a shot myself. I hope this helps you with your project.

i have no friends :c

We have taken the survey offline. Thanks everyone for filling it in. We weren't really sure how many responses to expect but it turned out to be a lot, so thanks for that :)
