Study on Hassle in Airports
 

Hello,

We are a team of academic researchers at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. We are conducting a study on the causes and consequences of hassle at airports. It looks like there is a wealth of experiences represented in this forum, and we hope that you can help us out. We would like to invite you to participate in a brief on-line study about hassle that you have experienced at airports. This on-line study will take about 10 minutes and is completely anonymous.

Your participation is greatly appreciated.

[We apologize for re-postings -- we try to reach a number of different groups of travelers to assure that our study captures views of a broad range of travelers. Thank you for your patience.]

Besides the fact this is not Omni material, I studied the study, and found it to be sorely lacking in any facet of a "study on airport hassles".

It appears to be more of a psychological study of traveller's response to stress at the airport. The purpose of such a study is unknown to me, but appears to be questionable.

Moving to Travelbuzz. If the mods there think it isn't Buzz worthy, then please close it.
