Hi all
Thought I would post the results of the user survey I conducted back in Feb
Some things got in the way and delayed it but never mind, its a draft so excuse any typos plz
There is quite a comprehensive breakdown of the NS2 data starting on page 39
Any feedback welcome, I dont expect anyone to read it but you never know. There is alot of opinion/speculation/theory in there about the potential causation for some of the statistical effects we see. If you disagree let me know, while I do/have played all the games in the study, experience is of course subjective.
Here is a link to the document on dropbox
thanks again to the people who took part!
Some notes about the report:
1. Its big and dense.
2. I think most people will be interested in the comparative analysis (their game vs the other games), the pdf is hyperlinked so its easy to find. (page 19)
3. It might be a bit hard to follow if you are not into stats, but I hope the highlighting helps. There are alot of numbers, but the stats used are not very complicated, the report mostly focuses on correlations and effect sizes (sizes of difference made by a variable).
4. Before anyone shouts at me about using correlations, I know, correlation do not show causation, please read the statistical criteria section
5. The justification for the various variables and reasons for the study are in a literature review which is not part of this document (it would make it too big and boring), but it does exist and will of course be included in the thesis chapter.
