Hello steamgift community!

Continuing my previous thread,
Original thread ==> https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/jCGsh/help-me-with-my-thesis

So,
I need your help for my thesis as the title suggested.

There are 3 stages that my questionnaire going through.

  1. Wording test, https://goo.gl/forms/fe96NPZz4OGek4RG3
    The responds were better than I expected. I've got a lot of input for my questionnaire.

  2. Pre-Test, I will take a few sample (around 30 respondent) to check my questionnaire validity and reliability.
    Here is the link ==> https://goo.gl/forms/riZr8ye6vBLJCXpn1
    You're more than welcome to give me more feedback since it is not finalized yet.

  3. Real-Test, I will try to get sample as much as possible until my deadline (my target is 300 respondent) which result will be used for my research.

Update:
March 20, 2018 - 23:44 GMT+7

So the winner for the first wave of train already decided.

Well, it definitely needs proofreading, as it's obvious English isn't your native language. I can't do that for you because it would take too much time, but I can tell you that you are omitting the personal pronoun "I" in some places, as well as the definite and indefinite articles.

You should put a comma after "My name is Aldi". You should say "I am currently working on..." etc. I think it would be best if you could have someone proofread this for you.

Hey thank you for your feedback.
That is true, English is not my native language.

I see, I will try find someone else to do proofreading.
This is very helpful input.

Actually, use of "I" is generally considered improper in formal works such as a thesis.

By "I uderstand this question clearly" and "I skip this question". I assume you meant Yes and No.

Wait, so this was a questionnaire about a questionnaire... This confused me...... Ok, doing it again.

How do I put it, current stage of questionnaire is checking if people understand my statement or question.

So basically "I understand this question clearly" means yes you understand that question.

"I skip this question" is more ambiguous, it can be because you are too tired so you don't even read the question or even consider that question is way to confusing which means I should do something about that question/statement but in the end it is similar as no.

Perhaps I need to put no as an option to those questions.

The other option is to comment about that specific question. In example pointing out grammatical mistake etc.

Thank you for asking.
I think some other people are having similar problem.

You ask where you should contact us if we win the giveaway, but since the gift is through Humble, you can simply create a Humble gift link and put it where the Steam key normally goes. No e-mail or other outside contact needed.

Hi. Hello there.

Thank for your suggestion.

Btw. The humble monthly giveaway will be given to one lucky entrant and the winner will be picked via random.org.

And it is not only one game but actually the whole bundle will be given to that lucky winner.
I have an option to use steamgift and give other games from the bundle as a bonus.

But actually the idea is I am giving the winner freedom to use the gift however they like. Redeem it resell or even make their own giveaway from that.

Don't worry this is just the first wave of Giveaway.
There are 2 more GA trains as I planned on previous thread so there are more opportunity and perhaps with even more interesting reward :D

I just wanted to say there was some wording which made the questions confusing, and a lot of them I wouldn't be able to correct without knowing what you're trying to say exactly, or what you're trying to find out D:

Some parts other than the questions were also a little unclear.

If it helps any, I've got literally endless spare time to correct your questions if you need it. Also, my fam are full-on Indonesian speakers, so you could even tell me what you're trying to say in Indonesian, and I could help you translate it back in a way that makes sense so it's clearer.

But anyhoot, thank you for the train :D

Hey thank you for your feedback 👌.

I will try to catching up with you after office.

The wording is generally understandable (I say as a native English speaker) but a bit rough around the edges at points. I suggested some grammatical corrections in the "Other" field, but you have options (one of the reasons why English is hard).

You''re right. Despite the gramatical error, ambiguous wording, or similar question.

Most fluent english user understand those questions/statements.

Of course I will keep modifying this questionnaire.
Taking people understanding of my wording into account ntil I can hit the optimal result.

Thank you for your feedback!

A few of the questions were worded a little weirdly but I'd say that most people would be able to figure them all out.

I added some feedback to a few of the questions.

Bump!

As a non-native fluent speaker, I agree that your wording is a bit wobbly here and there, but generally understandable. I don't know how well people who aren't fluent will be able to understand it, though, so some proofing will definitely help.

I hope this was useful. Thanks for the train! :)

Thank all.

So basically I made a mistake on the 2nd set of questions.

I put "Game Company" Instead of "Game Publisher"

Some people commented that developer not necesarilly publisher.
That is true and I am well aware of.

The idea is,
I consider that game publisher equal to the brand of that company. More often than not smaller developer will use big publisher name for marketing purpose that is why I put this game publisher as the brand. Thus making online community tributed to those publishers their brand community.

So, do you guys have aby suggestion whether I should keep using game publisher or there is any other term better to refer the brand of specific games?

My option is game company, game developer or directly call it as brand.

I think, based on the questions you ask in the form, that you should stick with publisher.

Just because publishers usually have a broader collection of games, and they usually follow a kind of theme that consumers can pick out. Rockstar Games, Ubisoft, etc. I think it makes more sense than narrowing it down to the developer if you're asking about brands.

But I've never done business, so... ¯_(ツ)_/¯
