Weblog Ethics Survey Results



What this study is all about

This study seeks to explore ethical principles in blogging through a quantitative survey of bloggers from around the world. It is our honors thesis as undergraduates at the School of Communication and Information , Nanyang Technological University (SCI/NTU).

Why is there such a long delay from the initial results release date in May?

We needed time to properly analyse all the findings. The response was more overwhelming than we expected, with over a thousand bloggers completing our survey. We thank everyone who had did the survey, and apologise for the delay.

Who are we?

We are three undergraduates from SCI/NTU. Ordinary undergraduates who found the issue on blogging ethics interesting, and decided to do a thesis on it.

Dr. Benjamin H. Detenber and Dr. Mark Cenite are our thesis supervisors.

Why are we publishing our results here on blogspot?

Beyond just a final year thesis, we hope that our study can contribute to the blogging community amidst the debate on ethics and ethical codes in blogging.
