Well, they have to do research somehow, and if they ask us directly, there's almost no chance of them being misled by people who don't understand the issues we have. That's my opinion, anyway.
Thats cool i guess... I would be more open to it, if they said what exactly the are researching.like school/company/ publication/ and what there objective is. They all seem to leave out what there references and objectives are.
They don't tell you the objective because it can affect the accuracy of the responses collected by providing participants a basis for bias, thus altering their natural responses.
Wow. I learn something new every day in here that I have in common with the Aspie persona. I thought my ability to score high on tests I don't actually know the material for was just some random talent, heh!Yes indeed. Reminds me of having read somewhere that a psychiatrist said it does no good for some of us Aspies to take autism tests over again given our ability to discern patterns and determine outcomes.
I already know the objective, so I can score honestly on such tests, or score as I choose on any given day to achieve a specific result. I may be compulsive over certain OCD rituals, but not when it comes to taking a test.
That being said, I did suspect it had something to do with my pattern recognition skills considering how high they are.
