Xbox LIVE Communication Study
We were contacted by Jeffrey Kuznekoff, a doctoral student at Ohio University who's working on a research project with Dr. Andrew Ledbetter (Ohio University). They're looking at how gamers use multiplayer gaming systems to communicate. They'd love your help! Here's the blurb:
We are conducting a study examining how people communicate through multiplayer video games on Xbox LIVE and are interested in learning about your experiences interacting with your friends in these games. If you are 18 years of age or older and would like to participate, please follow this link to our online survey. Participation in this research is completely voluntary and all of your responses will be kept strictly anonymous. The survey should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. At the end of the survey you will have the option of entering your email address into a drawing for two 3-month Xbox LIVE Membership Cards as a thank you for participating. Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions about this project.
Functionality like real-time voice chat is clearly changing the way gamers interact - but scholarly literature is a little behind on analyzing this. See if you can help fix this! (Louis Wu 14:38:33 UTC)
