Has anyone looked into the possibility of doing survey studies on the perception of EA ideas? I’m thinking of surveys that might include questions that prompt the participant to choice between 2 statements. Each statement might contain an EA idea, but phrased in a different way. The goal would be to determine which verbiage is more palatable. Another type of question might measure which statement is more likely to convince the participant of a given view, or to take a certain action. The audience would be those who were not already EAs. Ideally the result would be a set of word & phrase choices that were statistically proven to be more palatable & also better at convincing people of changing their views or taking action. This set of language could then be scaled as a best practice across a wide variety of community building & fund raising efforts.
