ZOMG! An Oxford University, UK, intellectual has posted in the Zoo!

Joanne states that the online Survey "has been designed to improve understanding of the characteristics of people who gamble online."

In effect, imo, this is a test-run for the study, and Joanne and her colleagues are very willing to take suggestions for improvements before it goes mainstream.

(Note that they are not conducting market research or collecting data for any for-profit reasons; also, there is no political agenda underpinning their study.)

Mike, I'm disappointed that you've thrown your green weight behind this "survey." (If you are indeed endorsing it.) It seems to be very poorly thought out regardless of the fact that it is a trial run. It shouldn't have been allowed to survive in the zoo, let alone promoted here. At least not until Joanne and her cronies improve the biased questions. (and no, i'm not interested in her references.)
