Questionnaires are vital for the market researcher: they draw accurate information from respondents; give structure to interviews; provide a standard form on which facts, comments and attitudes can be recorded; and facilitate data processing.

Questionnaire Design explains the role of questionnaires in market research, and looks at different types of questionnaire and when and how they should be used. It explains how to plan, structure and compose the right questionnaire for the research you are running. Contents include:

objectives in writing questionnaires

differences between data collection media

planning your questionnaire

writing the questions

types of question

using prompt material

layout

piloting

ethical issues

social desirability bias and how to avoid it

issues in multi-national surveys

Part of the new Market Research in Practice series, published in association with The Market Research Society (MRS), Questionnaire Design is an invaluable guide for anyone studying or practising market research. Packed with expert advice, it also includes examples of the most common errors and how to avoid them.
