Forgot to mention in comments: The “How much do you like/dislike the following” section needs a “don’t know” option--or perhaps better, a “don’t know enough to have an opinion” option AND a “can’t make up my mind” option, both of which are significanlty different from “neutral”. This would give a much better picture of actual audience knowledge of the figures named, which the present structure tends to exaggerate, probably greatly.

I took the Danish Mensa some years ago and just put in my score. Same for the big five. Sorry to say, but that 300-item test is extremely poor. The questions are waaaay too general.

That English language test was loads of fun and I encourage everyone to take it. I scored 39 correct with English as a second language.

The survey takes you to a summary page when it's done, but it's for the 2024 survey and not this one.

"How should I convince you to give me more money?"

I'd suggest you take a page out of my model where I paywall things temporarily (and partially) and then unlock them after some announced date. Besides the obvious benefits, this also allows you to get two rounds of media attention for everything you do since you make once announcement upon the initial post and then a second upon the fall of the paywall.

Btw the survey results link at the end is for 2024
