Survey

Some of you may be familiar with the American Association for Public Opinion Research, also known as APOR.

Recently, they put together a task force that had the aim of addressing these questions, and they published a report called the Responsible AI Integration in Survey Research Report, which deals with these questions directly.

And we're very lucky to have the lead author of that report, Dr. David Rothschild, here with us today.

David, welcome to The Signal.

Fun, fun.

And I understand as part of your business with Good Ember, you've been collecting kink quiz responses, which has given you a fascinating window into what people are curious about.

And of course, I love surveys.

People that follow me on FetLife and Substack would know that I love doing my own surveys.

You can tap in front.

I think the second category down, you'll see Social Survey, and we'll see how many people we can get to participate in this thing.

If you're having trouble with the QR code, uh, it's probably 'cause you got an Android.

[laughs] And [laughs] I'm kidding.

Cobus, today we're gonna wrap up a series of conversations that we've been having over the past, I'd say about two months, looking at all of the various polling data that's been coming out about the Chinese in Southeast Asia, in Africa.

We spoke with Ivor Ichakovitz, who did the Africa Youth Survey.

We brought you up to date on what Afrobarometer was saying in previous shows, and we talked about a survey of surveys in Southeast Asia that the Asia Society Policy Institute, uh, covered.

And if you haven't seen any of those shows, I recommend that you go back into the catalog.

They're all there.

They're all telling a very similar story.

And Cobus, one of the, the most important surveys that comes out that validated all of these other surveys was the Pew Survey, and of course, that is done by the Pew Research Center.

Thirty-seven countries, and across a thirty-seven-country survey, a median of fifty-one percent have a favorable view of China, while thirty-nine percent have an unfavorable view.

We can take a look at the preview for Crows, and we're going to do so.

I'm going to talk about RPG Companies and Trust, the new Wizards of the Coast survey that just went out, and how we can use that survey to evaluate our own relationship with Dungeons & Dragons, role-playing games, and Wizards of the Coast.

Today's tip is going to be TPK backup plans.

What happens when all the characters die? How do you fail forward when everyone's dead? We're going to talk about that today.

And I think it's worth asking ourselves what that relationship is.

What is that relationship? So we're going to talk about that today.

But what I first recommend you do is to go take their survey.

Uh, you can find a link down in the show notes.
