I made a web-experiment to find out what makes LoL players and their teams successful

Hi!

I'm conducting research with the purpose to explore the relationships between social processes, task load, cognitive processes, play style and performance in League of Legends players and their teams. I put quite a bit of effort into programming the web-page, and it's LoL-related, so I thought I could put it up on the community creations page, even if it might not be quite as artistic as the stuff that usually gets posted here :)

The study consists of demographic items and two questionnaires, and four tasks for assessing different cognitive skills. Participation takes approximately twenty minutes. If you're interested or if you have any questions, you can find more information and my contact info at the study's website, at http://leagueoflegends.web-psychometrics.com . I'd also kindly ask you to forward the link to other players you might know, especially if you play in a ranked team, since I'm hoping to address some hypotheses regarding team cognition.

This looks really interesting, do you have a rough estimate when you will get results out to us?

I tend to have my doubts when it comes to surveys relating to League (If you need an example, go to any famous League video) But, it seems okay, so I'll give it a try. It might also be possible to add in an option to remain anonymous, but that's my opinion

Felt like Impact testing that I do for concussions. Was a great test though, and I am very interested in seeing your data! How many have taken it so far?

What is the purpose of these tests again? I know that they have to do with "exploring the relationships between social processes, task load, cognitive processes, play style and performance in League of Legends players and their teams."

But are you measuring speed or cognitive power or what? What form will you data be put into and how will you calculate it?

I left an email at the end of the test. If you cannot find it there, I will PM you my email. I appriciate it!

Still looking to recruit more participants - I'm at about 90 now. If you have any friends or acquaintances who could participate, it'd be great if you could share the link!
