1,000 Conversations on Friendship

1,000 Conversations on Friendship

My name is Margot Hoerrner, and I’m conducting a qualitative research project called "1,000 Conversations on Friendship." Through this project, I’m having one-on-one conversations with people around the world, guided by ten questions about how we form, sustain, and experience friendship. There’s no predetermined outcome... just a genuine curiosity about a universal human experience. Everyone has a story about friendship, and I’m interested in listening. Thank you for your interest in joining the conversation!
About this questionnaire

This brief questionnaire collects profile and demographic information to support the broader study and ensure diverse representation. Completing it should take only a few minutes.

Although the final use of this research is still being developed, the intention is to contribute to a deeper understanding of friendship as a vital element of human well-being and community life.

Your privacy and confidentiality will be fully protected. No participant names or identifying information will appear in any reports, presentations, or publications related to this research.

Thank you for your time and willingness to share your perspective...
I agree to take part in "On Friendship," knowing that my participation is voluntary and my responses will remain anonymized. I’m free to skip any question or end the conversation at any point.
