Dear Geocaching Community,
Our group at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) is conducting research on Geocaching. More specifically, we are gathering data on what motivates Geocachers to play the game, based on personal Geocaching experiences.
If you would like to support our efforts by providing your views, please fill out the short survey below. The survey is anonymous, and should only take about five minutes. Your participation will help us to gain a broader understanding of Geocaching motivations.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dGlZakpWZms5aFZBSXhDNXZfV3JvUUE6MA
We thank you in advance!
Robert W. Lindeman, Amirhossein Farvardin, Elizabeth Forehand
