[Help] Survey for the values and motivations of Wikinewsies

Dear Wikinewsy,

We are conducting a study on the values and motivations of Wikinewsies, who post or edit stories on Wikinews, with the approval of UF IRB (UFIRB #2009-U-330).

You were emailed because you are recognized as a Wikinewsy. Your experience and devotion to Wikinews are very important to the development of the project. The survey will take about 10 minutes. We deeply appreciate your help to answer the questions.

The results of the survey will be analyzed in an anonymous way and used only for academic purposes. If you are interested in the findings, please email ffgao <at> ufl.edu. We’d be more than happy to share the findings. Thank you for your time!

On-line Questionnaire: http://projects.jou.ufl.edu/survey/entry.jsp?id=1237918327020

Have a nice day!
