It is a tradition for her apologizing on the anniversary of the final battle, 2 May, for one character who did not survive. Fred was first Lupin last year, and Severus this year. Wonder who will be honored next year?

Wonder who will be honored next year? Kare Sherry now: Well, I don't care about Snape dying. But I wish she'd apologize for killing Sirius, Dobby and Hedwig too. And Fred was the worst on the day of the battle. Why couldn't she have killed Charlie, a character we didn't know very well, or Percy, just as he's redeemed himself? Lol.

People had to be killed off, such is the nature of war. Even in the world of wizards.

I need your help! For my Bachelor Thesis I created a survey about adult reader's responses to the Harry Potter novels. It needs to be filled in by someone who is at least 38 years old, who has at least read one of the Harry Potter books and who is either from Germany or an anglophone country. If you meet the requirements I would highly appreciate if you could fill in the following online survey. It won't take longer than 10 minutes! -> https://kwiksurveys.com/s/bvObGYpR https://kwiksurveys.com/s/bvObGYpR Thank you for your help! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I found a problem. It is too late to fix now, but it can be fixed for the next survey: The survey has a scale from 1 to 10. This is innumerate. The scale should start at 0. You will have a pileup at 1 of people liking the books a little and people hating the book and no way to separate the 2 types of people. Much psychometrical research exists. Before going into how to build scales, we need to understand what the scales represent: All scales are logically with 0 to 1 or -1 to +1. Now that we established that, we can reduce errors by making all values the same length: Rather than 0 to 100, which can read to 100 becoming 10 if we drop a 0 (or 1, or 0), and might lead to out-of-bound errors like 109, keep all values the same length with leading 0s if need be (00 to 99). 04 is a perfectly acceptable score. If the scale is logically -1 to positive 1 (e. g. -9 to +9 or -99 to +99), skip over the value of 0 or 00, thus forcing respondents to come down 1 way or another on a subject. One finds a lot more to psychometrical research, but these are the basics.
