Hello Board,

Many thanks to the board admin for allowing me to make this post.

I am a Ph.D. student at The University of Texas – Pan American, and I am researching how music fans react to video of a band’s live performance. I consider fans of Sum 41 to be great music fans, and your participation would be very much appreciated. All you have to do is view a video that will last between 3 and 4 minutes, and then rate the band on 14 categories and answer about 7 questions. It should take between five and ten minutes to complete. The video you will see is randomized, so don’t be surprised if you see a different one than a friend. But please, I'd appreciate if each person could take the survey only once. Although, you can feel free to pass it along to other music-loving friends.

If you have any question, please either Pvt Msg me, or you can also email me direct at [email protected]. Thank you very much!

Edit: Yay, I did it again and got the sums :D I said they weren't very reliable

Hello again Board,
Just wanted to follow up on any concerns. First, I am not a bot. I just had a fellow Ph.D. student here in our office kick me in the side of my leg to make sure. It hurt, so I am certainly not a bot.

I did get permission from the administrator of the site. It is kind of him to allow me to post this.

As a Ph.D. student, with some of my research specializing in how people experience and enjoy music, your opinions are important to me. While I like the band Sum41 I am here requesting the kind participation of involved music fans like yourselves.

You can feel free to visit my University's website blog entry to confirm I am who I say I am. Here is an entry from earlier this year:

http://blogs.utpa.edu/graduate/2011/04/ ... onference/

I am happy to answer any question directly by private message or email at [email protected].

Thanks and regards,
- Paul

I know, but I can't help myself, in psychology my teacher was talking about obedience and told us to stand up, so I was all like 'no' and I was totally an ickle webel and so am now continuing this insubordinate streak on TNS by doing the thingy twice :glad:
Also, I think it's abit late for the retarded thing, as today I let someone rub stingy nettles on my right nut for a dare :2cool4u:

Hi Folks,
I assure you I am not a bot. If you don't want to take the survey, just don't take it. If you're interested in my research, please feel free to pvt msg or email me.

Also, thanks to those of you who have taken it. I appreciate it. The survey is anonymous, however I do get a report of referring web sites and I can tell a number of people from the board have taken it seriously -- thank you, I am grateful.

Regards,
- Paul

Yeah, I'm not a fan. I think they suck, personally.
