Just to let you guys know: Like with the LW survey, I wouldn’t have minded to fill in an optional ‘extended section’. I imagine you made the survey shorter in order not to scare people off.
Thanks, that’s helpful to know. Jacy Anthis suggested that, and I was the main person keeping it short. I was going to link at the end to a follow-up survey Ben Landau Taylor was listing, but it wasn’t ready in time.
In general, how did people find the length of the survey, would they have filled in more, and would they have followed a link to more questions?
Knowing nothing about the survey before I would have filled in a much longer survey but then I’m a survey junkie I even got a long way into the 45 minute Yale survey.
When I had already started the survey as I said I wouldn’t have minded to fill in more. If it had been previously announced to be a longer survey I imagine the initial barrier would have been higher for many though.
Personally, I would have filled it in even if it was longer since I think it’s important. But with a different topic that could have made me not fill it in.
