Hmm, I took the “sacredness” study, and got high scores for one of the categories (which shall remain unnamed due to spoilers), indicating that I care strongly about this category. However, I believe my high score is biased due to the way the questions for that category were phrased: they conflated that category with another one which I value quite highly.
Did anyone else have that (perceived) experience, or is it just me ? I could post some rot13ed details, if people think the above paragraph is too vague.
You’re saying that you took an online survey with multiple choice answers to vague hypotheticals and the result doesn’t fully capture your ethics, beliefs, and values?
Well gee, when you put it like that, it sounds positively silly :-)
But no, I’m not merely complaining that the study fails to capture a uniquely beautiful snowflake such as myself, but that it’s strongly flawed, and thus it will likely fail to produce useful results. That’s my guess, anyway.
