That information is in the Informed Consent on the first page of the survey.And where would someone find your Ethics Approval for Human subjects and your processes for handling the data that you collect?
Great, how would you describe your sampling technique?That information is in the Informed Consent on the first page of the survey.
I am posting the survey in online forum groups, as well as asking people I meet along the way to complete the survey.Great, how would you describe your sampling technique?
I skim read your Ethics stuff and so I may have missed it. Is this a Master's level or PhD level research project?I am posting the survey in online forum groups, as well as asking people I meet along the way to complete the survey.
No worries - I don’t think I directly mentioned it. This is for my master’s in Research PsychologyI skim read your Ethics stuff and so I may have missed it. Is this a Master's level or PhD level research project?
Okay, then I can be a bit nicer to you.No worries - I don’t think I directly mentioned it. This is for my master’s in Research Psychology at Wake Forest University in North Carolina, USA.
Agree!I also have an advanced degrees and teach graduate students and just want to say that the rest of us should leave your methodology to your chair and committees and either fill out the survey or not without comments on the rest. You will get what you will get and you and your chair will sort that out.
We met a couple yesterday outside of Portomarin who told us about your research and studies. My husband and I told them you should post the survey here so if you get a bunch of flack,, it may be our fault. Best wishes on your research.

I returned from a Camino 3 weeks ago. But while walking I would not have the nerve and time to answer surveys. I guess it would be similar for many.Hi all! I am a graduate student in research psychology and am collecting data on pilgrims' pain coping strategies (while also walking the Camino myself!). If you are CURRENTLY walking the Camino, I would appreciate if you could take my survey (linked below). It will only take 5-10 minutes, and your input will help inform the fields of health psychology (pain management) and pilgrimage studies.

But the original request serves an academic purpose. Hence those responses are the responses from academics to an academic. The receiving end of those responses is not just a pilgrim, but someone who does some sort of academic research and hence used to debate of this kind. This kind of debate is actually the core of all academic work.As I read so many of the responses I feel saddened.
Yes, many people are high level academics but this is a pilgrim forum, not a peer review journal.
May I suggest that we stay in our pilgrim shoes.
Maybe we could either pass silently on the request or help a fellow pilgrim when we are asked.
It seems to me that perceptions of the survey will vary greatly between those in chronic pain, acute pain sometimes, or little pain to speak of.I did enter the survey. Couldn’t get very far in responding. It struck me as a questionnaire in search of a predetermined response “when did you stop beating your wife?”

This young man is asking PILGRIMS to fill in a survey. I'm appalled by some responses. It sounds very much "let me tell you what I know." May his thesis committee treat him more kindly. You know, welcome him by saying "interesting topic, what got you interested in this, why the focus on pilgrims, what do you hope to show in your research,. Then ask him HOW he went about it. Good luck with your research.Great, how would you describe your sampling technique?
It is NOT the job of a thesis committee to treat someone defending a thesis kindly! It IS the job of a thesis committee to treat the candidate FAIRLY and to grill the person defending their thesis to ensure academic integrity. I read through the questions. Agree with another poster that many of the questions are in the prayer and faith-based, or "pretending the pain does not exist" realms. I was involved in medical research and would concur with others that answering the questions as asked could not lead to any valid conclusions. I think the people seen as being critical on here are simply trying to help steer the OP to redirect their "research" in a direction which would answer a valid question in a valid way. Good luck!Agree very much

I was unaware that Camino forums is a thesis committee ; quite apart from the fact that it's a Masters thesis, not one for a doctorate, so that normal expectations and requirements are correspondingly lower, and it's by no means certain that there even is a thesis committee as such.It is NOT the job of a thesis committee to treat someone defending a thesis kindly!

As to the Faith-related questions, remember : it's a questionnaire for pilgrims walking a Catholic pilgrimage route -- not a general questionnaire for long-distance hikers.
I just completed your survey. Missed the part of fill out if currently walking, but I have walked multiple caminos, so I offered a myriad of my coping strategies in my written response. The questions with numerical magnitude choices were very limited as others have stated. There was not much in way of medical and physical treatments one might utilize. I speculate that those physiological pain coping strategies far outweigh psychological and spiritual strategies, although all are important tools.Hi all!

And should not that Professor direct the research in accordance with the individual student rather than with various opinions from this or that individual in this place ?Even if there is no thesis committee for a Masters then at least there is a prof or lecturer following up the process.
Exactly.A Master's thesis might be considered a learning exercise more than a contribution to the body of knowledge.

No, this is not snobbery at all.Notice the OP has dropped out of the discussion? I don’t blame them one bit. The level of academic snobbery displayed here is completely inappropriate and off the charts. Those guilty of such an offense should be ashamed of themselves but I doubt they have the capability.

His name is Dr on first page so probably phd level research it’s a questionnaire . It’s a great topic to research .I skim read your Ethics stuff and so I may have missed it. Is this a Master's level or PhD level research project?
That question was answered by the OP, who is a young woman.His name is Dr on first page so probably phd level research it’s a questionnaire . It’s a great topic to research .
No worries - I don’t think I directly mentioned it. This is for my master’s in Research Psychology
