1) If we are interested in autism quotient, I suggest adding RMET because, while not a direct measure, it's also not a self-report.
On that note, why all the focus on autism, and not generalized mental illness?
I suggest adding the most common Axis I and II disorders as listed here and asking people to specify [No] [Suspected but un-diagnosed] ][Yes, diagnosed]. If size is a constraint, I'd suggest just doing Axis I with a write-in option.
For ease of access:
Axis I: depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, eating disorders, schizophrenia.
Axis II: paranoid personality disorder, schizoid personality disorder, schizotypal personality disorder, borderline personality disorder, antisocial personality disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, histrionic personality disorder, avoidant personality disorder, dependent personality disorder, obsessive-compulsive personality disorder
2) You can use this to quickly implement a drop-down menu listing every country for your country question
3) Singularity question seems ill-defined, due to many different definitions of "singularity". Maybe replace with something specific? (Strong AI, sudden intelligence explosion, etc)
I have finally gotten the survey to a point where I'm pretty happy with it. I have no big changes I want to make this year. But as is the tradition, please take a week to discuss what minor changes you want to the survey (within the limits of what Google Docs and finite time can do) and I will try to comply. In particular, we can continue the tradition that any question you request can be added to the Extra Credit section unless it's illegal or horribly offensive.
You can find last year's survey results here and you can find the very preliminary version of this year's survey (so far exactly the same as last year's) here.
EDIT: I don't particularly like the IQ test or the Big Five test used last year. If you have any better replacements for either, tell me and I'll put them in.
EDIT2: CFAR, you added seven questions last year. Let me know what you want to do with those this year. Keep them? Remove them? Replace them?
