#plural survey

[sysciety]

(Rb for reach!) Asking that singlets wait for the results instead of voting please! This can be interpreted as when you started telling people in general (such as close friends) or in general if you're publicly a system - whichever is more significant to you

[trenchcoat-of-hats]

we made a survey to find out info on systems with bodies that have its own gender and/or sexuality!

results will be posted to this blog

it's inclusive to endos, but not exclusive to pro-endos, anyone who's a system can fill this out!

just gonna.. @system-research @pluralityresearch

(*13 and under for the sake of this poll! If they're older than 13 now, they still count, this only refers to their initial age upon joining/creation.)

We don't see much talk of this in the plural community, but it's something that should be talked about more. In-system pregnancy is often talked about as a tabboo most of the times we see it mentioned, and in-system children are to some degree as well. But there's so many systems out there with children in-sys that we thought we'd make a poll about it.

Independent Research on Experiences with Imaginary Friends

Hello Tumblr! Some of you may have seen this poll I made going around. As of writing this post, the poll is still going, so if you haven't voted and would like to you are more than welcome to do so. However, this post is to more formally announce the survey I made that expands on the idea behind the creation of the poll; you can access it here.

The survey polls on experiences with imaginary friends, but also includes questions about social experiences and neurodivergencies, in particular system experiences. You do not need to be a system to respond to this, and in fact I encourage singlets to also take the survey. People of all neurotypes and all ages are allowed to respond to the survey. The survey is primarily multiple choice with avenues to elaborate on your selections, but it also has three long answer questions. The whole survey should take around 15 to 20 minutes to complete. You are encouraged to be as specific as possible, even if you're not sure about how to answer a question.

All responses collected will be seen by my eyes only, and will be analyzed only by me; this endeavor is a one person effort. The data gathered by this survey will not be formally published. At best, if enough people wish to see the results, the results and analysis will be posted on Tumblr, on this same blog.

It would be much appreciated if this post is spread around, but I highly, highly encourage you to share the link to the survey outside of Tumblr as well. Data collection will cease on March 1st, 2024 or when there are 500 responses, whichever comes first.

Thank you in advance for indulging my curiosity!

[pluraldeepdive]

I'm opening up my survey, again! I'm especially looking for responses from people who identify as plural, multiple, or a system. 💚

[selfcarecollective]

Hi everyone! We attempted to try to make a survey update yesterday but accidentally deleted it. Currently the survey is at 257 responses! It got a few responses within the few days we were in active which is good! Remember to those who haven't, the survey is anonymity focused and the goal is to get the entire system community to take it! It's topic is about Syscourse and topics as such! We plan on the survey lasting until September 10th! By September 11th when we wake up we'll be closing response availability! Continue to reshare and promote the survey to whoever you can!

[system-research]

Welcome to our blog dedicated to researching systems and plural people!

Here we will post polls, surveys, ect, that are aimed at gathering information about systems, headmates, innerworld, ect.

This blog is aimed at being completely neutral as to get information on all types of systems. A disclaimer though most things will be separate such as having two polls asking the same thing but one being for OSDDID/traumagenic systems and another being non-traumagenic systems. We do that because having your system formed from trauma and having your system not formed from trauma are most of the time very different experiences.

A better explanation of how we plan to categorize the polls/surveys is in this ask.

Another disclaimer is that both mods are OSDDID systems and because of that the main type of language we will use on this blog will be lean more towards disordered language. Such as saying system instead of a plural person. We will however refer to alters as headmates on this blog. But if anyone has suggestions on other words or terms we can use we will be glad to hear it.

We welcome asks and ideas to help us decide what surveys or polls to post! Such as asking for us to do a survey on headmates with blue hair and how common they are. While we do prefer the suggestions to be serious we will accept some silly surveys like that. We also encourage criticism and constructive criticism as we are not perfect and will mess up from time to time and we want to be let known when we do. (Preferably nicely but it’s okay if not).

You may notice that this blog is very similar to @/pluralityresearch and that is because it is somewhat based off the main idea of their blog. We are making our own because we don’t like how biased the blog is towards non-traumagenic systems. So we made our own blog to be (the best we can be) completely neutral. That away everyone can participate without feeling like they are being ignored or looked over. Also due to recent events on that blog please know that if we ever mess up that we welcome people letting us know and constructive criticism.

Last part is our DNI. We don’t want transplural or transid people doing our surveys and we also don’t want @/jess-total-mess or those affiliated with them to interact either. (This is for our own mental health)

Shameless Survey plug

So almost two years ago we made a survey on Blending. It got a few responses from a server we're in, but I lowkey want *more*. Sooo... here I go:

[Disclaimer: I seriously do not care about your syscourse stances when you're filling this, but if you insert hateful rhetoric into your submission, it will be deleted entirely and I will sleep soundly.]

If you wanna reblog and make it spread a bit further that'd be so cool!! :3c

[sysciety]

(Rb for reach!)

Didn't have space to put an other section so if none of these apply tag or comment it if you can. I'm asking more about general trends (ex: if for years you've had a co-host but you don't currently, voting yes is still ok) but feel free to vote what's most comfortable for you

There aren't any solid guidelines on the size categories so vote based on how you'd classify your own system

If your system doesn't use roles but you feel like there's someone who might fit that position feel free to vote either way

[frostfire425]

I've made a small survey for writers because I'm curious about what my experiences would be categorized as...

You may take it here (the responses are anonymous).

If I get any noteworthy results, I may reblog this with an update.

[nyandela-catalogue]

Status Update:

Jonah - Asleep. Recovering decently well. Discussed the issue with Adam, who has agreed to avoid the actions that would lead to a repeat of today’s situation.

Adam - Asleep. Protecting Jonah. Feeling guilty for discussing source trauma + certain topics without explicit permission from Jonah.

Evelin - Resting. Less agitated with Adam, but still wary of him.

Sarah - Asleep. Borderline inaccessible, to me at least.

Ces - Resting. Surveying surroundings. Protecting and cuddling Mark.

Mark - Resting, but aware. Relieved the main stress of the day is over.

Lemon Bar - Relaxing nearby. Acting as my Overseer and as Quality Control. Ensuring comprehensibility of this post.

-

Conclusion:

Recovery is under way. Issue has been identified and addressed.

If any significant changes are made and I am still frontmost, I will provide an update.

Thank you for your patience.

I want to write about writing systems in fiction, but I am not an authority on DID just because I'm a system. To compensate for this, I've been researching DID for years now and comparing it to representations in media as well as experimenting with writing different constructions of systems and seeing how they come across + how practical they are to write from a story perspective while being as accurate as possible and I've realized I've maybe accidentally made myself into an expert on the topic of DID in fiction specifically.

HOWEVER, since I've been focusing mostly on DID I don't have much on other dissociative disorders, so I wanted to ask you all what dissociative disorders and/or what traits not common in DID but common in other dissociative disorders do you find to be either 1. Woefully underrepresented in fiction or 2. Not well known in general.

(Not using polls for this so it's not restricted to 10 and might include things I'm not aware of. No deadline, spread this as much as you want/can, I'm just gathering data, it's not for a specific project)

[sinclair-scrambles]

Systems' nationalities survey?

We've been curious about this for a while now and was wondering if a survey like that has existed or not. Esp since we notice so many systems are living in the US and want to see how many are systems outside of US and North America.

Anyone can interact with this post

NO SYSCOURSE ALLOWED

Results of a casual survey I hosted on reddit, discord, and uquiz. The majority of participants (54 out of 56) did not identify as a system or plural, so here's all the non-plural data. I will be hosting the same survey again later for only plurals/systems so we can get a nice comparison. Hope you guys find this info interesting!
