Yes, he's after both kinds of input. From what I understand its to inform the direction of the work rather than resulting in data to be presented, so mixed data won't mess with it as it's  more anecdotal.

Ian - I'm not clear if he wants someone who is disabled to fill out his
questionnaire, or someone knowledgeable in the field to respond with
what they know?  If the latter, I'd be happy to respond with what
information I have.

It seems to be a bit of both. While some of the questions are more
experience-based in terms of gaming with a disability, there are some other
more general questions about ways we can improve game accessibility as
well. And since one of the early questions asks whether or not the subject
has a disability themselves, I'd say he's open to input from both sides.

Yes, I am a little unclear on that as well. It seems like it could be
filled out from multiple points of view and then yield some rather
confusing results so I didn't want to mess up his study by filling it
out before checking with you as well.

Yes that may be right, that he's looking for more broad opinions. He
could easily sort by the disability question -- my remaining concern
would be if it mattered at all if the answer was both. It would yield
an interesting third comparison point if it was but I don't know if
he's concerned with sample size.

Sorry -- few too many years analyzing surveys. Just don't want to send
him down the wrong road toward answering his dissertation question(s).
