| | | Participate in a HP survey!
Christopher Bell, a doctoral student at the University of Colorado, kindly requests participants for a Harry Potter survey to aid him in his research.
Chris writes: Quote:
This fall, I am conducting what I think is quite an interesting piece of research, and I am hoping your members would be inclined to help. I am currently conducting an online survey about the fans of Harry Potter. How many times they've read the books, how many times they've seen the films, how much time per week they spend on websites such as this, and so forth. It's basically a questionnaire about American consumption of Harry Potter merchandise. The survey is fairly short (less than ten minutes) and completely optional and anonymous. It is really important to note that the survey is being conducted only for fans aged 18 and older.
If any of your members would be willing to assist in this research, I would greatly appreciate it. They'd be contributing to the further study of J.K. Rowling's magnificent work as a part of our collective cultural framework.
Take the survey here |

aww...I was excited about participating until I read the part about being 18 or older. I'm definitely not. And, I'm not American.  But if I was, I'd be sure to help out with the survey!

Actually, I'm not an undergraduate. I'm a doctoral student.
Sorry about the age restriction and location restriction, but really, we're interested in adult American consumption of Harry Potter material.
We already know kids like Harry Potter. | |

Thats not fair that only people over 18 can take the survey, if you want an accurate reading you need all the people who enjoy the HP books. I bet over 65% of people who do get on Harry Potter sites are kids, not adults. I hope you will change this.
