The following additional information about the survey was provided by Dr. Craig Harper:


This survey explores the sexual and romantic attraction patterns of MAPs in relation to different age categories. With this work we will be looking at whether different features are associated with attractions to children at different stages of development. You will be asked about attraction levels to different groups, and whether different aspects of those groups contribute to feelings of attraction. We anticipate that the survey will take around 15 minutes to complete.

The survey is anonymous, it does not ask for any identifiable information, it does not collect IP addresses and it can be accessed using a Tor browser.
