Bit of Advice Posted: 02-15-05 23:24pm
Hi amanda
just a suggestion. Maybe to make it more
anonymous you should set up an e-mail
address rather than asking people to post
their replies.
This is obviously fairly contentious in
some respects so if you do do it discuss
it with you parents and maybe a teacher to
make sure that you've covered all you
basic internet safety issues, ie set up a
hotmail address that does not identify you
in any way. Do not get involved in any
correspondence with people (you just don't
know who they are). Never divulge any
information about yourself (see rule 2!)
however trivial it may seem. Never
arrange to meet anyone you don't know....
The list goes on and is quite obvious but
I can't make the suggestion without
pointing this out.
Anyway as I said this would mean that
peoples answers aren't available for all
to see, unlike a standard posting and may
get you more responses. Unfortunately
these websites often take a long time to
get a reply but it may be worth a shot.
I'd certainly fill it out and send it on
for you but make sure you never give out
any details about yourself or use your
personal e-mail address. Discuss it with
your folks/teachers (cause no doubt they'd
go nuts if you don't) and let us know.
Good luck with everything.

You are sure asking people to put a lot of
effort in to helping you with an
assignment! Each of those questionnaires
could take an hour to fill out, if people
thought about their answers. While many
people might agree to contribute to
genuine medical or academic research,
there is not really a lot of benefit for
them to put that much effort in to your
behalf.
I would suggest you scale down your
demands a bit, and you might get more
replies.

Questionnaires Posted: 02-23-05 23:12pm
Thankyou for your suggestions. But
earlier I have given people my email
address so they could send it to me there.
My email address is damanda
7@hotmail.Com feel free to do the
questionnaires. I know they are long but
they dont need a long answer. Each
question is helping me one way or another.
I need a different persons view and a
close relative. Im really sorry if people
dont like the length but try doing them
when you are bored on the net or have
nothing else better to do. Im really
sorry but I need more people to do it!
Otherwise I wont get a good mark in my hsc
year!
