Poll: Hobby Survey! (Participation needed please Escapists!)

[Kwaren]

23 Male. I chose go out with friends.

 

[blarghblarghhhhh]

go out with friends male, 23.

I would think that making a poll the includes the option video games on a video games related site might mess with your results. just sayin.

 

[SpaceSpork]

Under 18, male. I like le cinema

 

[Aphex Demon]

Escapists, I have been given an assignment for my course to research the market to see which leisure activities are the most preffered to do out of the community.

If possible, when you vote, if you could tell me your choice and age so I can total up all the votes and ages, that would be much appreciated.

Thankyou all so much in advance <3

If all goes to plan, this will be me after.

Hey, not to detract from your research paper or anything, but you do have other sources don't you? If you are asking for people's proffered hobby on a videogame enthusiast website, you are going to have a massive source bias towards videogames.

To avoid bias, either pose the same question to a variety of different groups, or at leas note the bias in your paper.

Edit: Videogames/movies at home. Male 19.

Yeah cheers for the advice. I am very aware of this, it will go in the report, but the modern age of civilisation is nearing towards gaming rather than TV or other activities anyway.

Again, not to nitpick, but where is your evidence for that conclusion?
The logic basically goes:
"My conclusion, TV and videogames are the way of the future."
"But you took the evidence to prove that from a gaming website."
"That's ok, I only need that site, because gaming is the way of the future anyway."

Circular logic. Do you see what I mean?
Just keep that in mind. Excess bias in your data could hurt your paper's reception.

Apart from of it being fact that the gaming industry is growing bigger everyday?

22 Male Going to Cinema (With friends)

 

[Ubermetalhed]

I chose go to see a film at the cinema but tbh usually I do a mix of these options.

Meet friends, go for a meal/drink then hit cinema.

Also Male 21.

 

[rex922]

[Red Right Hand]

Being as this is a gaming website, don't you think that your results are going to be rather skewed?

 

[Zing]

21 male, I chose "Go out for meal or drink". Which I thought mostly went hand in hand with Meet up with friends, drinking or food is usually what I do with friends.

 

[UltraXan]

Male, 16. I choose staying in because I don't really have friends that go out >_>

 

[Hassao]

I'm male of around 16 and I like to stay in and play videogames with my friends (I chose the stay in option).

 

[Frozenfeet2]

male, 17, video games (not film though)
although this will be kind of biased by using a game website.

 

[staika]

As of currently I prefer to stay at home and game, but I've been going to the gym a lot recently to get ready for basic training this summer. For the poll I picked stay in and watch a film, play video games.

19, male

 

[Knusper]

It was a though choice, but I went for 'stay in'.

I'm 16 and male, by the way.
