MMORPGs is a growing phenomenon and a research team from Uppsala University, Sweden, is therefore conducting a study to investigate player types, different reasons for playing and other aspects of MMORPGs. The onlinesurvey is anonymous, in english, and takes about 12 minutes to complete. Your participation is crucial for the completion of this study, therefore we would greatly appreciate your taking part in our survey.

Our research team consist of Viktor Kaldo, clinical psychologist and PhD-student just finishing his thesis on Internet-based self-help treatment and David Hagström, psychology student, whose undergraduate thesis will be the framework for this project during spring 2008. Gunilla Bohlin, professor, will be supervising the study.

Anything that offers even the slightest bit of pleasure can become addictive. I've seen people lose out on serious relationships because they're too busy getting "phat lewts" or can't stop DLing pr0n. ect. ect.

I think there has been like eight women, this far. And we've got quite a lot of answers by now

Don't worry, you won't mess up anything.

I'm glad you all took the time to do it. Thanks alot!

Took it and answered as honestly as possible. Was kinda amusing to read the questions about "escaping emotions" and what-not. :P

StormDragonZ · May 02, 2008, 11:21 PM // 23:21

Finished, but I have to say:

Interesting barrage of questions.

Hehe, almost, it is "Intressanta frågor". I didn't know that anyone wanted to learn swedish except for the swedes

and perhaps the finnish.

Not all people do like the last questions, i've noticed. I guess you're one of the non-addicted open-minded

Thanks for participating!
