As survey experts, we see the same mistakes in surveys all the time. If you don’t conduct surveys on a regular basis, it is easy to fall prey to common mistakes. Consider just a few of the following and see if they sound like things you might have a hard time avoiding.
A Few Common Mistakes Made When Writing Surveys
- Asking unnecessary questions
- Asking questions that cannot or will not produce usable information
- Making questions too general or ambiguous
- Providing multiple-choice lists that are too restrictive
- Not understanding the habits and perceptions of those taking your survey
- Asking too many open-ended questions
- Asking too many questions
- Requiring answers to questions that are hard to answer
The analysis of your results depends on a well-designed survey. All the sophisticated statistics from our PhD statistician don’t mean much if the data quality is poor. Quality data starts with expert survey design. Your results will benefit from superior data analytics if you start with a well-designed survey. This is why we focus on questions like: How many questions are “too many”? What makes a question “unnecessary”? How can you tell if your questions are “too general”? Why do you need to understand the perceptions of those taking my survey? How can you tell ahead of time whether a question will provide usable information, and more?
Our years of experience help us identify what works. Let us help you create best practice surveys that get you the information you need.
