Hello everypony!
TL;DR: Please rate the importance of the following aspects of the show to you as an interval in the range from 0 to 1, with 0 being completely unimportant, 1 being most important:
The characters
The art style and animation
The plot
The music
The voice talent
Inside jokes and references to pop culture
Nods to the fan base
The all-ages appeal
Examples: 0.3 to 0.6, 0 - 1, 0.8±0.2
The intervals are entirely independenent and are allowed to overlap, do not have to add up to anything, etc. Thanks!
Rationale: I'm researching how representative a variety of survey methodologies is. I've seen these questions asked in the 2013 and 2014 "Brony Herd Census" surveys via "Arrange the items in the order of importance" methodology. The problem with that approach is that many people are not certain about the importance of specific aspects, but the methodology cannot account for that. So I'm asking this via a more advanced interval-based methodology so you can specify the degree of certaincy as well (In this survey e.g. "0.8±0.1" would mean you're fairly certain that the importance of certain aspect is around 0.8 and "0 to 1" would mean that you have absolutely no idea) and see how the results compare.
Thanks in advance!
