Hello! My name is Caitrin Armstrong. I am a masters student in the Network Dynamics Lab at McGill University, supervised by Professor Derek Ruths. We are surveying members of a variety of political subreddits in order to measure what characteristics of a group correlate with measures of group cohesiveness. This research will ultimately be used to contribute to computational models describing individual-group interaction.

tl;dr We want to quantitatively study how people interact on Reddit! Political subreddits are a good place to start because they are diverse and encourage personal interaction.

We would like survey as many of you as possible. Please follow this link to view more information. If you wish, you will be able to start the survey from the linked page. Please note that your friendly moderators have approved us posting this message.

For four years you have been asking, who is memorylayne? This is memorylayne speaking. I am the woman who does not sacrifice her love or her values. I am the woman who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are perishing—you who dread knowledge—I am the woman who will now tell you.
