Update1:
The survey was approved by two researchers/professor also the questions used in the survey are part of scientifically validated scales that have been used in many studies before.
Update2:
This psychological research, like any other, uses the previous results of other studies to formulate some hypotheses. The aim of the research is NOT to prove a certain idea but to discover if the hypotheses, that were made by correlating different conclusions of other studies in this area of research, are valid or not.
Many assumed that the aim of the questions is to highlight that gamers are ultra violent/aggressive or antisocial, which is false.
Many find the questions leading, misleading, etc. The questions are NOT made by the student, these were validated in previous research by professional researchers who have proved psychometric properties of them. You can't change questions as you wish without affecting those psychometric properties of the instrument.
Please do not try to respond as you have guessed the purpose of the study. The study does not try to prove anything (like a certain idea that researcher has) but to explore whether or not the hypotheses(based on results of other studies) are true.
Please consider that the results of the study can confirm or refute the hypotheses or the previous studies. Therefore you should not guess the aims of the study which cannot be disclosed (at the moment).
