Hi Audrey;
Have you added a free text entry in your survey? I have seen many pre-selected replies but not places for free responses.
On WikiPapers we have some publications about that subject http://wikipapers.referata.com/wiki/Motivations
I hope you publish your thesis and your dataset (anonymized?) online when finished. Good luck.
Regards, emijrp

Hello all,
I am an undergraduate student at the University of California, Santa Barbara, conducting a senior honors thesis on users' motivations to contribute to Wikipedia. A more detailed description of the project can be read here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Motivations_to_Contribute_to_Wikiped...
My project's success is dependent on the valuable responses of Wikipedia contributors, which I am collecting through an online questionnaire. This brief questionnaire is completely anonymous and should take approximately 10 minutes to complete. If any of you are willing to complete this questionnaire, it can be accessed here: https://us1.us.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_8ixU9RkozemzC4s.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Sincerely,
Audrey Abeyta
