I am working on development of an exercise for kids and adults that
helps them identify their strengths, in comparison to the general
population (or subsets of it).  Exercise would have participant
consider things they like doing that lots of others don't, that
they're good at that most people don't think they're good at.

I am looking for surveys (lots of them, less than 10 years old) that
talk about things people don't think they are good at (e.g. math)
and/or don't like doing (e.g. laundry).  Ideally want collection of
data that includes percentages, like "70% of all respondents asked
about their least favorite
activities included "filing paperwork."  Already have access to Gallup
- so looking for sources beyond theirs (or clever techniques for
finding things within their collection).

Happy to refine this question in a conversation with anyone
interested, and can increase price if appropriate.  Please inquire!

Hi melissag206-ga,

Would a selection of studies (lots of them) covering this topic --
accessible online or in peer reviewed journals -- be acceptable as an
answer?

I'm not sure how to answer - if you mean the basic results of a Google
Scholar search on "disliked activities," then $100 seems a bit high! 
:)

Hmm - I probably need to rethink the question and ask again...   Can I
check with you directly when I get it re-thunk?
