Globalisation of Dating - The Survey

Globalisation of Dating - The Survey

Following on from my previous post on online dating I have decided to take on the challenge of getting to know what the public’s perception of online dating is. I am going to ask questions related to globalisation, danger & anonymity and this will be to explore whether age has any effect on the perception of online dating. Instead of going around asking people on the street I am going to create a survey online and open it up (hopefully) to the wider world. What would be the point of asking people about globalisation unless you’re willing to use it as a tool to get the information requested? I am going to upload the survey on to my personal Facebook account (this will be directed towards friends & family), then Twitter & LinkedIn & this is open to anyone to take – it opens the survey to more than just those that I know and that I’m familiar with. Another option is to leaflet around Goldsmiths campus, however I believe that a wider audience will be reached online.

To make things easier I am going to split people in to three age groups – 18-25, 26-40 & 40+

This will make the data easier to interpret and to see if age has any difference on what people believe and perceive.
