Hi, my name is Andrew. I'm a student writing a research paper about public shaming on social media.



Wikipedia describes public shaming as "a form of punishment whose main feature is dishonoring or disgracing a person, usually an offender or a prisoner, especially in a public place". In 2019, this is typically done via our various social media platforms.



This questionnaire will ask you 10 questions about your views on this controversial topic where I'm attempting to determine:



- people’s views on whether public shaming is seen as a deterrent for other crimes



- If there is a correlation with the central topic of the shaming article and peoples willingness to read articles or view video clips on their social platform that shame individuals.



Note that all responses are anonymous and will be used for the purpose of this research paper only.



Thank you for your participation.



Andrew
