This is for my Psychology class, and I decided to conduct a survery on you guys. Being such, I am to tell you that noones name will be given out due to confidentiality, please answer all questions to your best ability, and if you wish to see the results of my test, I can make a new thread posting them, since we were supposed to allow the people we studied/surveyed a chance to see the results if they wish.

Now, without further ado, here we go.

Do you find that you feel more emotional playing Video Games than you would while watching T.V.?

Yes, no, or uncertain.

Reading books?

Yes, no, or uncertain.

What are your most common emotions when playing games? (of the suggested ones, you can choose either one or two, but not three)

Anger, Frustration,Happiness, Sadness, Anticipation, Curiosity, Contempt, or Other_________(Please specify)

Do you get competitive while playing games online or with friends?

Yes, no, uncertain

Does this competitive behavior sometimes lead to aggression? (if answered yes to first question, if you answered no, just choose no again)

Yes, no, uncertain

Does this competitiveness lead to a different emotion?

Yes (specify), no, uncertain.

Thanks for your time!

Not really. If a tv show or a movie has a good story line and makes me feel attached to the characters, then I can get emotional during them as well.

Reading books?

Same as above. If there is a good storyline and fleshed-out characters, I get into the story.

What are your most common emotions when playing games? (of the suggested ones, you can choose either one or two, but not three)

Anger, Frustration,Happiness, Sadness, Anticipation, Curiosity, Contempt, Hatred, Joy, Justified, Shocked, Horrified, Scared, pretty much any emotion one can feel. Maybe not love...

Do you get competitive while playing games online or with friends?

Yes, no, uncertain

Does this competitive behavior sometimes lead to aggression? (if answered yes to first question, if you answered no, just choose no again)

Ummm, I'll answer anyway. Sometimes I get really upset at myself that I'm not good enough to beat it...

Does this competitiveness lead to a different emotion?

Uncertain.

Thanks for your time!
