Dear forum users,

We are doing an academic research project on online service quality. We would be grateful if you could spare 3-5 minutes and complete our online questionnaire. The link for the questionnaire is provided below.

Thank you for your help and time.

P.S. The module leaders gave me permission to post this message.
 
It is random, since random people will click the link and actually finish the survey. I, for instance, clicked the link then got bored and didn't submit the survey.
 
You people obviously have no idea what is meant by random. This survey is obviously biased towards people who follow the general trends of the internet. For example, the majority of us are young, male, and interested in technology. Thus making the survey invalid as a random sample has not been chosen.
 
This research is exploratory rather than confirmatory. Therefore the sample is not required to be random.

Thanks to those who completed the questionnaire.

The questionnaire's webpage was down for about 4 hours yesterday due to a problem with the university's server. It's working properly now. Sorry about this problem.
 
Thank you everyone. I'm almost finished with my data collection but I still need about 100 more participants to achieve my target sample size.

I hope there are a few other people who wouldn't mind participating.
 
We're doing a follow-up survey to finish this doctoral research. It has been decided by the faculty administration that one of the repsondents will win a Free 6GB iPod Mini (including free shipping) for her/his participation - this is open to everyone worldwide.

There are no open-ended questions in this questionnaire so it can be completed by only clicks.

There are two questionnaires: one about Hotmail, the other about Yahoo! Mail. These two websites were chosen because they are popular sites but this research is purely academic so data or results will not be shared with Microsoft Corporation or Yahoo! Inc.

Please enter your email only if you want to take part in the free iPod draw. Collected emails will not be used for any other purpose. When data collection finishes, the winner will be determined and contacted by email.

You can use the email on questionnaire pages if you have any questions.

Thank you for your time and participation.
