Just to give you one more data point, I also had a problem with those last questions. Technically, I could say I go to church less often than once a month, since "never" falls into that category. On the other hand, the wording on that question does seem to assume that the survey-taker is a churchgoer. So I was left wondering whether to answer, or just abandon the attempt.

Unless you want to limit your survey to churchgoers, you might want to modify/ clarify it. You may be losing potential survey participants.

aninkling,

Thank you for taking the survey! I understand and appreciate your difficulties with the last question.


All,

I expect the survey data collection portion to complete within the next few weeks. Some of you may be contacted for interviews shortly thereafter. It's a randomized process, so I don't have any control over who ends up being contacted for an interview, but I greatly appreciate any and all willingness to further contribute.

Regards,

Matthew

Thanks again to everyone who was able to participate.

We've achieved enough participants in the survey portion that we are ready to move on to the interview portion. At least one of the posters from Board77 has been selected for the interview portion of my study. One of my research assistants will be reaching out to schedule interview times within the next couple of weeks. If you are contacted for an interview, please know that it's best if you have available a microphone and webcam as we will be using video-conference software (e.g. Skype, Google Plus, etc...) to conduct and record the interviews.
