Default Some Help for a Graduate Course

If you or anyone you know is between the ages of 12-17, please consider taking the following survey:

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/PNZ75JH

I need at east 60 respondents within the next two days for my graduate multicultural communications class. The survey has to do with adolescent tv viewing habits and attitudes toward sex portrayed on certain prime time shows.

Ask nieces, nephews, other family members, students, etc. Please. I'm sure most of you know how it can be trying to get enough data for a project

Thanks in advance guys/girls!

I hope the "data" being collected with this project is not being used to draw any conclusions. Was there seriously no discussion of the various ways to collect survey data and their relative validity? Was sample selection simply not discussed at any point? I'm never impressed by the education of those using forums to collect survey data, but I would expect a graduate level program would have educated students on some of the very basics of data collection.

dude, i just need some data
this is not a professional study that will be distributed to journals and presented to panels of experts.

Not going to lie, time is the main factor here, not much else.


Thank you sincerely for those that have helped.

sorry your standards are so high about graduate students. Most simply feel entitled to that document.
