Subject: Large-scale Attitude Survey of Standard Austrian German: residents (or former residents) are asked to partake


A large-scale study of attitudes towards Standard Austrian German has
collected more than 55,000 complete responses to date (preliminary
results in German:
https://science.apa.at/power-search/5030866180983458640, in English:
https://www.vienna.at/german-but-please-made-in-austria-why-we-austrians-love-our-standard-german/9628517).
We ask for your assistance distributing the survey to people who:
* live or have lived in Austria (for two years or more)
* are 12 years or older
We would particularly like to invite those who are sceptical about the
linguistic autonomy of Austrian German to partake in the survey (as
long as they have lived (or once lived) in Austria for at least two
years).
The URL is here (8-9 minutes):

The survey is open till the end of October. Our goal is to reach 1% of
the population (90,000).
Results will be posted under FYI in the new year.
