Hello all,
I am an Assistant Professor of Instructional Systems Technology at UNC-Charlotte. Along with my colleagues at Wake Forest and Purdue University, we are conducting a study of MMORPGs (specifically WoW) and citizenship participation.
In an effort to explore parallels between civic leadership and participation in MMORPGs and ‘real-life’, we are conducting a study of the use of guild leaders and guild members of World of Warcraft. This study consists of participants completing a brief (6-12 minute) online, anonymous survey.
For those WoW players who wish to participate in the study simply complete the survey located here [
http://www.surveyshare.com/survey/take/?sid=65142]. All respondents will be entered into a raffle to win one of a number (3) of gift certificates to Amazon.com or EB Games, or a six month subscription to your favorite MMORPG (Winner's choice!). To complete the survey, you will first be directed to an Informed Consent form, at the bottom of which is a hyperlink to the survey itself.
Cheers,
Richard
