Re: True False sections were difficult

Hi Eeyore,

Thanks for doing our surveys and for sharing your thoughts. I'm glad some of the things we are asking about seem worthwhile and will make a contribution.

True/false can be hard to respond to: it's difficult to try to take our complex experience related to what the items are asking about and reduce it to a dichotomous response.

"Trying to get a view of our own childhood was also something I felt might show some promise."

Agreed. I think there is a lot more to ask MAPs/CLs about in terms of childhood experiences, hopefully we will continue to ask about developmental aspects of your lives, just so we can start to build a more fulsome developmental/life course understanding of MAPs/CLs.

"I suspect the number who interact online in any format is a very small percentage of the number of us out there in the real world."

Again, agreed. Any sampling method with the community will have flaws. Without doing a population-based methodology, I am at a loss for how to go about reaching the wider MAP community.
