Hi Everyone,

I'm currently running a project as a part of my dissertation in Psychology. Your intellectual contribution in this project is very welcomed. It will take about 30 minutes and you get to choose to be in a prize draw. Besides, it is for a good cause :)

Done - mostly because it was Australian ;)

FWIW, I suspect the results you get from poker players might be a little skewed compared to those who gamble on pokies or lotteries or whatever, as very few poker players regard what they do as pure gambling.

Done out of curiosity as well.

Like Oz says, poker ain't gambling.

I finished the whole thing but like the others said poker isn't all gambling, there is a skill aspect involved. Unlike roulette and the lottery, or things like that.

Thank you for your participation. :smile: Really appreciate it. I need all the participants I can get. Feel free to get your mates involved as well!

To answer some of your comments: Yes, some scales are repetitive as most psychometric scales are (to increase reliability and/or validity).:D
