Dear All,
My first post on this particular forum and a somewhat unusual one at that I expect! Probably best to start by introducing myself by saying that I am a psychologist, researcher, mindfulness based cognitive therapist and an avid gamer (ever since the original nintendo famicom way back when!). I also played WoW on Argent Dawn for a few years and still game, although now mainly on the PS3. Recently I began some research into particular game types (at the moment MMO's and FPSs) and am looking for participants to answer a few completely anonymous questions online. The test takes under 3 minutes, is completely anonymous and doesn't require any personal details to entered at all. I would be hugely grateful for anyone over the age of 18 who might have 2 minutes to spare to tick a couple of boxes just so that I can get as representative a sample as possible. In this particular study I am only looking at those who play either an MMO or an FPS or both. For those who take part there is also the invitation to attend a lecture on mindfulness that will take place in London later in the year.

Finally thank you all for taking the time to read this and for all of you who are now feeling the pangs of guilt that may lead you to take part by clicking the above link! Those little pangs of guilt prove that you are indeed a lovely, lovely person!![Smile](https://bordersdown.net/core/images/smilies/001_smile.gif)
Kindest,
Dimitri
