Thank you very much for taking a moment to support this study. This survey is being conducted as part of an academic seminar paper at our university. As part of this study, we are investigating how people communicate with modern AI chatbots and what relationship dynamics develop in the process.

P.S.: Users of SurveyCircle.com earn points for taking part, which they can use to recruit survey participants free of charge.

A few important points to note beforehand:

• Duration: The questionnaire is very short and will only take 4 to 6 minutes of your time.
• Voluntary participation & right to withdraw: Participation in the study is entirely voluntary. You may withdraw from the survey at any time without giving a reason and without suffering any disadvantage as a result.
• Anonymity & data protection: Your participation is completely anonymous. At no point will you be asked for personal data (such as your name or email address). All data will be treated as strictly confidential and used exclusively for aggregated, academic analysis.
• Important request: Please answer the questions as carefully and honestly as possible. As this concerns your very personal impressions, there are no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ answers.
