Survey We're Running a Tulpamancy Census for 2024

[XeIaso]

Hey all,

 

It's been a while since we did the last tulpamancy census and we figure it's time for us to get up to that again! We have partnered with McGill university in order to do this rigorously and apply the best practices in the field to ensure that we can get the best data analysis possible. We plan to publish this in a scientific journal upon completion of our analysis.

 

We're doing the census as a questionnaire as usual, but this time we will have a lot more questions, including some standardized question scales used in academic research. We'll also compare with previous censuses to see if any trends have changed.

 

Anyways, if you want to participate in our census, click the link here: https://surveys.mcgill.ca/ls3/279999?lang=en

 

It's a lot of questions and will take at most two hours to complete. We're going into absurd detail so that we can do the most analysis possible. Don't worry, you can take breaks and do it in chunks.

 

Thanks! We know it's a lot.

Cool. How many people from other places have filled it out?

We're on pace to hit about 50 complete responses by this time tomorrow. We'll have full numbers when the survey closes in January, but full data analysis may take longer (we're targeting June 2025 at the latest). We also want to submit the results to a scientific journal. I plan to make a writeup on the survey on my blog (it will be content-identical to the journal article but more focusing on the story behind it and the analysis techniques we're gonna mess with).

We just filled in the census, had to move somewhere quite first, but still did it. Good job it was completable on mobile.

My only criticisms about the survey are

1. It's hard to tell when it's talking about hearing physically, or in the mind

2. It's hard to answer when you have multiple, wildly different tulpas. For example, I have 2 tulpas, an intentionally created one, and a natural tulpa. I have had very different experiences with both of them.
