I have a lot of issues with the questions as presented in Ogi Ogas's LJ. Asking about whether I believe in True Love? Puh-leeze. The very US based assumptions (the education question) despite the fact that they apparently do seek overseas opinions. The very hetero-normative questions. The fact that they have changed the questions after people have taken the survey just gob-smacks me. What sort of scientific method is that? Their replies to some of the questioners have a regrettably condescending and patronising tone.
They declare their affiliation with Boston University but Mr Ogas doesn't answer questions about the sorts of ethical permissions they've sought. They're conducting this survey for a pre-approved book deal with a 'science-lite' publisher, with 'Netporn' in the title. I don't think I would wish to be associated with this, and I feel very uncomfortable that Crack Van is being used to endorse this survey.
