Therian Experiences Data Collection Survey!
Hello! I am trying to collect some information on therians for information and personal research purposes.
I am not associated, affiliated, or otherwise linked with any program, any study, or any group of people. I am not using the responses to this form to justify prejudice, harm, or bullying. I am simply curious about the experiences of the therian community, the overlaps that may exist with the LGBTQ+ community, as well as overlaps that may exist with life experiences.
There are three segments to this survey: the Therian Experience section, the LGBTQ+ Experience section, and the Personal Experience section.
Some of the questions in the Personal Experience section may be a little... well, personal! But I assure you that this survey is entirely anonymous, and for the entire third portion, every question except the first is 100% optional.
This survey takes between 10-30 minutes to complete, and would help me out a lot in my pursuit of knowledge!
I have the link to the Google Form below. It does not collect emails.
EDIT 06.24.24: After a little feedback that was very eye-opening, I want to clarify something. I understand that this, of course, a flawed survey. I understand that the language and intent behind this may be confusing--this is exactly why I left the feedback box!
This is not intended to be a professional or research-grade survey by any means. I am not, nor do I claim to be, a part of or even interested in being in a research-heavy field. I am just a curious mind who has some trouble understanding things, and on my way to further my understanding of your community, I want to see a larger picture first before having individual discussions with people. Because people's experiences differ largely, even within a community that, at least from the outside, is seen as being united. I think about the transgender community, which I am part of, and how all of our experiences are unique and cannot fit into a single box.
That being said, I am continuously updating the questions in the survey as people take it. I am editing things based on feedback, based on things I gather from responses, etc. I am taking all of your feedback and considering it to make this a more accurate survey.
And I understand that there are other, larger-scale surveys that have been done out there that gather information more accurately than I ever can, but I still want to do this myself. I want to try.
I know this is wordy, but I ask you to please read through this entire description before beginning the survey.
