    Academic Study on Cosplay

    My wife is doing a report for her psychology class. The report needs people who cosplay to fill out the survey below. She only has a week or so to get a decent amount of information for her report. The survey is totally anonymous and about 30 second to a minute. Please help her out by going to the link below. Thanks!

    Do you have to have participated in it yourself, or is it just regarding opinions on it?

    You need to have participated in cosplay. If you are currently working on a costume, then you can take the survey.

    I have one costume, just haven't gotten the chance to wear it yet; and I'm "working on a costume" by getting to 7% body fat. Then I can throw on a loin cloth and be one of the guys in my sig, which I actually plan on doing!

    I hate linking to reddit but this was actually quite helpful when I was running my study.

    thank you very much. I actually already posted on reddit.com/r/cosplay, but your link will help out even more. I want to thank everyone who answered the survey or is planning on answering it. she is already half way to the minimum amount of people she needs (50).

    Done. I don't know if she has any control over the answer possibilities, but it would have been nice to have a middle of the road response (e.g., "Equal between myself and my partner") on some of the questions rather than just "Me", "My partner", or "N/A".

    This is the reason why I stopped filling out the survey. We pretty much rely on each other to make decisions, neither of us really takes control. We agree on most things originating from suggestion.

    yeah the me/part/NA only answers don't really paint an accurate picture.

    She didn't actually get to write most of those questions. Whomever originally created the survey did not give that option apparently. Not sure why.

    Wham?

    On topic, I've always had a passing interesting doing cosplay, but there are no good cons where I live and I'm lazy and cheap so I don't feel like going to the big ones.
