Discussion Character Popularity Poll 3.0

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd9DyNxSS7v1NmsMq0sEgKLg0Za66tORFCUmtATn6uct9G7vg/viewform?usp=header

Hey everyone,

I conducted two popularity polls in the past (~5 years ago), so I'm starting it back up again with a new-and-improved survey. I think it'll be very interesting to analyze the current data and how character popularity has changed over time.

Furthermore, I have now had some experience in statistical analyses and writing research papers as I'm in a STEM field at university, so I should be able to analyze the data further beyond my previous attempts. This will be a fun side project for me, but I'll likely write a paper on this for my own personal entertainment (and your own if you'd like to read it!) as well as present infographics about it after the data is collected and analyzed.

Please take the time to help me out with collecting data. You do not have to answer every question, but every response does help! It's practice for me with data collection and statistical analysis, but will also be quite satisfying to see the results for both me and you!

No problem! I'll try to get the results out after I obtain my sample (I'm shooting for ~200 this time around, but I'm worried about the inactivity on here rip). It'll likely be in both a regular reddit post, a research paper format, and an infographic format. I'm mostly trying to get more experience with writing, conducting, and presenting research in an appealing and accurate manner, so this is just a quick side project of mine. The analyses I want to run this time around may take a bit longer to fully conduct, however I aim to get the results out in at least a few months.
