As some of you know, I'm now a research scientist at the Palo Alto Research Center (PARC). My colleagues and I recently got funding to conduct a rather
ambitious study of WoW. We're trying to find out what our behaviors in WoW reveal about who we are in RL. If you're currently playing WoW on a North America/Oceanic
server (see future plans section for players from other countries) and are interested in becoming part of our newest study, keep reading:
Gnome Rogue with Pink Mohawk LFG
Have you ever wondered about who it is behind that gnome rogue with the pink mohawk? Or whether it’s possible to figure out if a player is a man or a woman
just from the way they play the game? We’re social scientists from the US, Taiwan, and Hong Kong and we’ve wondered about that too. And that’s what this
study is about.
We’re trying to find out how well we can predict who people are just from the way they behave in a virtual world. Our research team has a long history of
studying interesting aspects of online games. We are also the same researchers who brought you the Daedalus Project and the PARC PlayOn Project.
To be a part of our newest research project takes only about 15 minutes to complete a web survey. If you are a FaceBook user, we’ll also ask you to install
a FaceBook app to gather some of your real world data. Individuals who are under the age of 18 or incarcerated are not eligible for participation.
