Done.

I messed up in the extra bit that asked about interviews. PM me if you want to do one on Skype.

Hello:

Please contact me about survey, and I have a lot of info about myself to share to one conducting study.

Great, that sounds like I'll have little trouble.

I preferred to wait for an official diagnosis. I received my diagnosis two days ago. Then I completed the questionnaire. I wish you good continuation in your work and research.

I just responded to the survey. If you are interested in interviewing me (via skype), please PM me.

Did you also find the last section about the extended interview slightly confusing?
There was a paragraph about the possibility of the extended interview and then a radio button selector for specific city and time combinations or the skype option. There was also an unmarked field just below the explanatory paragraph.

At first, I thought, "that field must be for an email address," but then I didn't see any specific instruction about leaving an email or other means of contact. Looking at this and having missed the time window for an in-person interview in New York, I selected the skype option and assumed that another screen would arrange contact details.

So I was very surprised when the next screen was the end and there was no option to leave a contact address. '

I suspect that that empty field on the "extended interview" page was intended for contact information, but it was completely unmarked. Aspiesociologist might want to revisit the instructions in that section so that it is clear what needs to be done.

Yes. It seemed "broken". Which is why I wrote the above (about having the OP PM me, should the OP be interested in doing a skype-based interview).

OK done. The boxes for adding further info were very helpful. I also liked the drag-and-drop feature in the section about listing the order in which milestone events happened, though I was a little perplexed until I realised it was there.

I didn't quite know how to handle the term "identify," which cropped up a lot, if I remember right, because it's not a term I understand well. I've had similar trouble with a questionnaire containing stuff about sociability and identifying with one's local community / country etc. So I guess I just don't know what identifying is, yet I wouldn't be particularly surprised to discover that I do it. Anyway, I don't think it harmed my responses to the test very much.

Nice survey! I actually enjoyed filling it out, for the most part!
