Abstract
This article shows an empiric research
within the context of a graduate studies thesis and provides a summary
report of obtained results. The research has been carried on through a
web-survey which was available online between February and June 2011.
The article first explains the research goals and introduces the
web-survey. Then main methodological nodes met in this research and
methods used to collect and analyze data will be discussed. Then is
given the results of the total number of useful responses and their
distribution based on demographic variables (geographic area, age,
degree, occupation and user typology). Therefore it brings into focus on
the results about the Studio 1 -- Italia, which are the most
representative answers. The results (in few cases showed with bar
charts) will be discussed concerning the three macro-themes of the
research: behaviours (that is how net users usually acquire creative
contents and software); opinions and perceptions (that is how net users
relate themselves to the copyright problem, which are their opinions and
perceptions about the hottest themes on the subject); consciousness
level (in other words what is the real information level and the
copyright working principles consciousness of net users and not of
experts).
