but that completely ruins any and all integrity of your study. for a matter as serious as this, you should more carefully consider the validity of your responses. you can't put a questionnaire on twitter and call it a study.

It’s not my study dumbass all self-reporting studies are “questionnaires”

I have zero access to the responses, it’s not a twitter poll lmao. A research team at brown university handles the responses, Lisa Littman will not even see them herself until after compilation because that’d be interfering with the integrity of the data

I don’t understand why you’re so determined to invalidate a study that will help trans and detrans people alike. I think trans people could benefit from knowing what factors may lead someone to transition & then detransition

I'm not determined to invalidate it mate it's invalidating itself. it's shite. like I said before it will be very easy to use the so-called study to come to very harmful false conclusions

in fairness, not all questionaires are invalid; self-reporting surveys are used in many published studies, since in some cases it's the only real way to access a group of people. the problem comes when... (1/3)

selection bias is introduced through self-selection problems (to some extent unavoidable in optional surveys) or, more notably, when restrictions in study advertisement/access lead to conclusions being drawn on a smaller subpopulation than initially anticipated

in this case, i'm concerned based on littman's previous methods of drawing samples almost entirely through anti-transgender websites, since this restricted the surveyed population to "anti-transgender individuals" rather than any sort of representative sampling (3/3)

(4/3, i lied) that said, if littman advertises more broadly here and especially does so on college campuses or websites with more diverse populations, there's a chance that at least salvageable data will be acquired - regardless of the intent in acquiring it

Even if the study were on a perfectly randomized sample of the population, this survey would still be very bad - extremely loaded with leading questions designed to push a specific narrative

And the anti-trans communities they're trying to pull respondents from are ones *we know* are full of highly committed ideologues who would very easily justify brigading a survey to inflate their numbers

oh yeah, i was just addressing point two and noting that if attempts to randomize are actually made it can address a part of that issue point one would require me to have seen the survey design/questions; i assume the questions are uhhhhh not great
