I had to get my study cleared with my institutional review board, which makes sure that all of the research with human subjects done at my university is ethical. From an approval standpoint, there are added complications with including minors in a study. So, that's why I decided to only include people over 18 in my study.
That being said, I'll definitely take including minors into consideration for future studies.

Hi everyone,
It's me again! I just posted this in the Bitcoin Discussion section of the forum, but in case you didn't see it, my survey is ready!
If you are 18 years old or older and use bitcoin, you are eligible to participate in my survey. The survey will take about 10-30 minutes to complete, depending on how much time you spend on the open ended questions.

If you have any questions for me about the study, I am happy to answer them. You can post them here, PM me, or you can send me an email at [email protected]
Thanks for your help! I am really looking forward to seeing the results of the survey.

why exactly do we need to be 18 to do this survey? i know a lot of young people who use bitcoins and are much younger than 18.
Could you link me to the original post? I don't understand why you want us to take a survey and what you need it for...
Yes, sorry about that. Here's the original post: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3311237
The short version is that I'm a graduate student doing a research project on the bitcoin community. I've developed this survey as a part of this research project in order to better understand the motivations and values of bitcoin users.
Yes well I can't really take the survey since I am only 14 but if you want I can take it anyways...
If you are 18 years old or older and use bitcoin, you are eligible to participate in my survey.
Why one must be 18 years old or older, isnt it discrimination ?
