    My name is Tammy Kilmartin and I am a third year psychology student in Dublin Business School. It is required that I complete a research project for my final year thesis.

    This research is interested in the predicting factors(optimism, self esteem & life satisfaction) of problematic internet use and has gained ethical approval.

    The questionnaire is anonymous and all data will only be used for scientific purposes.
    If you could please fill out the following survey it would be most appreciated. It should only take approximately 10 minutes to complete. Once you have the questionnaire submitted your data cannot be deleted as it will not be identifiable.If at anytime you feel like you do not want to continue with the questionnaire you can do so.

    Link to survey

    Many Thanks,
    Tammy.

    Done. I can share you survey with my friends on facebook, if you share my survey about e-consumer behavior (for my Master Thesis). Fair enough? :D

    Your use of the word problematic tells me a lot about you, but for a lot of people the internet does not make then depressed or have low self esteem like your survey is suggesting but a way for those like that to be able to go somewhere they are not judged by society and make friends have a better life.


    Your survey is very one sided and does not factor in to how helpful the Internet is to people with low optimism, self esteem & life satisfaction.

    But cause of the use of the word problematic I can tell how the thesis will go before submitting anything and you never wanted a fair result in the first place.
