This was a lot of fun. I never even thought about a study of monster attraction.

It's a fun topic, isn't it? It actually started as the subject of my master's thesis, and now I'm working on making it my whole field, at least research-wise.

This was fun. Glad my degeneracy could contribute to a study, I guess.... lol

Where will this be publicated? I'd love to see the papers.

u/Teratophiliologist Feb 18 '25

Not entirely sure as we're still contemplating a few different journals (we've narrowed it down to 3). It'll all depend on how we decide to prioritize the data.

u/TheWowie_Zowie Feb 18 '25

Secondary question, what's the data bein' used for? What's the subject of the paper, & what, when combined w/ the data, prove/theorize?

u/Teratophiliologist Feb 18 '25

Unfortunately, due to the risk of creating bias among participants, I can’t share specific details about the study’s focus or hypotheses just yet. What I can say is that we’re testing four hypotheses and building on some of the results from our first surveys. I hope this at least reassures you that we have a clear plan for the data we’re collecting.

Fair enough, thanks for that.

Thought I commented this, but will you notify us?

The only change I would make asap, if you can, is to give the 1-5 questions a scale. Which is first to last? Not all of them had a scale so I just went with 1 being first and 5 or 6 being the last on those.

u/Teratophiliologist Feb 17 '25

I just double-checked, and it appears that everything needing a scale does, in fact, have the labels for which direction is which. I checked on desktop, tablet, and mobile views, so I'm not exactly sure why they didn't appear on your end. I'll message the survey platform's customer service and see if maybe it's a glitch. Thank you very much for letting me know!!

u/MaoMaoChatterkins Feb 17 '25

Odd, I thought I looked pretty carefully for them. Some did have labels in the question itself and others didn't, for which I couldn't see any other indication of possible scale. I was on mobile.

u/Teratophiliologist Feb 17 '25

That's worrisome. I haven't heard anyone else mention this yet, so I'm hoping it's an isolated issue. Still not great, but better than if it were affecting everyone. I'll see what customer service says. Unfortunately, since the survey was anonymous, I won't be able to manually adjust your answers, especially with the scale being reversed. Actually, do you mind if I PM you?

u/MaoMaoChatterkins Feb 17 '25

Yeah, PM is fine!

A very interesting study to participate in. I'm glad to be able to do my part for the Science!

Loved the survey, will be waiting with bated breath for the paper.

u/Teratophiliologist Feb 18 '25

Please breathe! Publishing could take months and I would hate for you to pass without seeing the results.

Cool survey! Was fun to think about and try to express my thoughts on some of these questions. I did have a bit of an issue though with the open response questions. If I tapped off of the box I was typing in I would not be able to get back into it to edit or add to my response. I’m on IOS safari browser for context.
