1. Introduction

This is a survey on how people perceive verbal behaviour in political interviews.

On each page you will be shown some context and a transcribed interview fragment and then asked to rate the performance of each participant according to your intuitions on how they ought to behave in a political interview.

Although you might recognise the characters in the interviews, please be as objective as possible when rating them, regardless of your personal feelings about their style or political views.

The entire survey should take about 20 minutes to complete, but if you do not have that amount of time to spare, please complete as much of it as you can and then skip through the rest until you get to the final page.

At the end of the survey, you can watch a few rather amusing interactions I have come across during my research.

Thanks for your help!
