I'll definitely post it when it's finished. It'll be about a week from now is my guess, but I'm sure I can post rough drafts and ask for criticism as I go 
Collecting data for a paper, would you all mind taking a quick 5 question multiple choice survey?

#4 (Changed Relationships) needs an option for "No Change"
Hope I helped
Added, thanks!
You got it, and I hope it helps with your paper!
This question: " Have you had an easier time maintaining and/or creating relationships with people since you made the switch to electronic cigarettes, whether this be due to the removal of the traditional odor of combustable tobacco cigarettes on you, the removal of your need to constantly step outside to smoke, or some other reason? "
I had trouble answering it. For the most part, nothing has changed. My friends are happy I don't smoke any longer, but there's been no relationship shift. Plus the question seems a bit too leading and too open to interpretation, rather than a factual option-based answer like the other questions.

I did it but after I answered question 7 when I click next it just goes back to 1 is there something wrong? Or do I just close the window? I would also like to see the results just out of curiosity.
Done. Like some others have said, I had a little difficulty with the question about changing/maintaining relationships. There has essentially been no change since I switched to vaping, unless you count the good wishes of my family and close friends, who loved me anyway.
OK, must have been updating as I was doing the survey. Now it let me finish the survey and there are 2 more questions. So, done.
Seems like quite a few of you are having an issue with question #4, I'd say that's fair. How about something like "How has your switch to electronic cigarettes affected the people around you?" With answers such as "Positively, negatively, no change, N/A?"
If you added questions, do you want us to go back? I'm not sure if the program is smart enough to replace our old answer with the new one by our IP address or whatever, and don't want to fudge up your data.
I believe this website blocks you to only one response per question per IP address, so going back (if it will allow it) shouldn't negatively affect the data.
Thank you all for these responses! I'm already up to 70 individual respondents to the survey!
More feedback (after going to answer other questions:
add cold turkey to the "Methods to quit smoking" question (#6), and maybe a follow up question about how long it worked? < mo, mo, 6mo, yr+ etc
maybe a text box for # of years smoked? not sure how close you want this data..
In addition to "have your costs increased" you may want to add a question about "how heavy of a smoker were you" less than Pack a week/PAW/PAD/PAD+
Just some thoughts. HTH
