Thank you for taking the time to fill in this survey!

It won't take more than 15 minutes of your time - it's a sacrifice worth doing for the sake of the better understanding of the role that motivation plays in the software development process. After the questions there is a field you can use to leave some details that will be used ONLY to send you the final results, along with an elaborate study on the subject.
