    If you give us some background on what the research is being used for I might help.

    That's an oxymoron. Clearly, if you are happy, you can't be a programmer, especially one who is doing a good job :)

    If I were the suspicious type, I'd think this question set was designed to feed a ad campaign for some new programming alternative or product, wherein the pitch will include shocking stats "from the programmers themselves" on how they turn over poor custom work.

    Glad I'm not the suspicious type.
