Fanhackers has received a request from a Ph.D. student in Social Anthropology and Cultural Studies – Popular Culture Studies, at The University of Zurich. Fabienne Saurer is seeking help to find fan participants for a survey. Her research is on reading, fan culture and online communities. The survey is planned to run over the next few weeks, and will help Fabienne gather information to design questions for interviews later in her research. You can access the survey on this link, it consists of ten questions and takes an average of twenty minutes to fill out. We expect that many of our readers would be interested in both the results and in participating. As it’s a rather limited sample, Fabienne would appreciate the help in sharing the survey around.
The survey has been checked and approved by her Faculty’s Ethics Commission. This survey on reading engagement includes a consent form and information about participant privacy and data usage.
More information can be found by clicking on the above survey link. You can also reach out to Fabienne at fabienne.saurer [at] uzh.ch or her research supervisor, Dr. Ingrid Tomkowiak, at ingrid.tomkowiak [at] uzh.ch
If only I fit the requirements! This seems like quite the interesting project, and I’m really interested to see how it turns out!
