who wants to help with my research paper?
Apr. 9th, 2006 12:07 amI don't know why I didn't think of this before. If my paper is going to address my peers' concerns, I should know what those concerns are, shouldn't I? SO... who wants to give me a hand and answer a few brief questions? No right or wrong answers, promise, but let's assume for the purpose of the survey that it's possible you or someone you care about will be having children at some point in your/their life, k?
First, just for statistical purposes:
1. Age:
2. Gender:
3. Location (just the country or region's fine):
Now, the survey itself:
1. What does the phrase "homebirth" mean to you?
2. What does the phrase "hospital birth" mean to you?
3. Have you or has anyone you know given birth in a hospital?
4. Have you or has anyone you know given birth at home?
5. If niether you nor anyone you know has ever given birth, where do you think you or they would?
6. Which do you think is the safer option? Why?
7. What would influence your choice of either option?
8. What would be your concerns about either option?
9. Who do you think would provide better care, a doctor or a midwife? Why?
Comments will be screened for the privacy of commentors, but if you'd like your reply to be public feel free to make note of it and I'll unscreen it.
Thank you very very very very much anyone and everyone who chooses to help me out with this. If you could please direct other people this way, I'd really appreciate that too. It's a very informal survey, but it'd definately help to get as wide a sampling as possible, ne? Thank you!
