OWS Research, Request for Assistance

[Keith Goldstein]

Dear Occupy Pocatello,

We are a group of researchers doing an investigation of the Occupy Wall Street protests. We would greatly appreciate it if you could spend about 10 minutes to complete the following online questionnaire. The questions relate to participation in OWS, attitudes about government and society, and your background. Your answers are anonymous and will be used for research purposes only.

The link to the survey is as follows: http://tiny.cc/protestsurvey

Thank you very much for your assistance.

Thank you for contacting us.

We would be more than happy to participate in your survey.
It is great to see participation in this movement on a global scale addressing our governments.

Thank you for your support.

Hello Keith,

Upon taking your trying to take your survey many were concerned that on the second page where it asks.

"For each question please check if you've already done this, and if you would consider doing this in the future.  "

There is an option for "Participate in a violent protest (burning tires, clashing with police, etc.)"

However there is no option for "Never" or "No" in this section. That option would apply to many other answers on that section as well.

Could you please change this as many refuse to take the survey without that option.

Occupy Wall St is a non violent protest and the majority feel that it must continue to be so.

Thank you,
