Title: I have a mission!
Post by: Valkohai on March 04, 2012, 09:43:06 AM
Hi everyone!
I'm soon doing my psykology exam in my high school and passing it is requered for me to graduate in next summer. So I ought I would make an test. PArt of psykology knowledge is knowing how to make tests and analysizing it based on phsykologic knowledge. But I do need valuteers, so won't you please help a poor student out?

 So what am I testing? I have an hypotesis but I can't tell that yet before I gotten my test results.. but to proof my hypotesis considering My little ponies (or toys over all) I would need a group to answer my questions. Think of it as an interview.

 No names will be announced in anywhere, including here or in anywhere. Everyone will be introduced as anonymous if needed. No-one is gainaing anything from this experiemtn nor am I going to send it to anyone. This is for my personal testing of skills. BUT note that I most likely will post my hypotesis and result on this site later. 17th March is my aimed dead line.

 Please, answer all the questions below and send them to me vial private message. Do NOT post in the thread to eliminate the possebility of other peoples opinions effecting the test results. Thank you.

Thank you everyone who joined my mission! It was very fun reading all of your replies and to tell the truth! I was very suprised by some of the results I've gotten!

I'm still in middle of presessing the data.
But I try to get it finished today or tomorrow in evening (got school in that day).

I never expected such an interest for my little test thingie but I'm extremely happy you all helped me! I will make sure to post the results in here for everyone to read and join the talk!
