Re: Masters Student Looking for Research Study Participants

My common sense dictates that the sort of results from your research will suggest that the majority of 24 to 30 year olds who use dating agencies to get married will be the sort who are looking for western settled/citizens of the western countries - mostly for economic opportunity reasons.

Limitations to the intent will be that the figures will be a sample from the shaadi.com users and certain people who use internet/digital pairing services will avoid using shaadi.com due to the image and reputation it has gained as an overall service provider as compared with other providers which are more catered for a Muslim audience or some other defining characteristc.
