    LESSON 2 DESIGNING THE SURVEY
    QUESTIONNAIRE

    What’s New?
    ACTIVITY 1. WHAT YOU KNOW
    Copy the table below in your notebook. Under the K column, write what you
    know about survey. Under the W column, write what you want to know about it.
    Lastly, leave the L column blank because you will go back to it later on.

    What I know What I want to know What I learned

    What is it?
    A survey is a general view, examination, or description of someone or
    something. It also refers to looking carefully and thoroughly at (someone or
    something), especially to assess them. When you want to do a survey, you need a

    Teacher II
    questionnaire to help get the information that you need. A good questionnaire should
    be valid, reliable, clear, and interesting. When we say,
    Valid - it asks what it intends to ask.
    Reliable – it gets the same answer if the same
    question is posed repeatedly in a short time.
    Clear – it is easily understood.
    Interesting – it is completed by the respondents
    and gets better response rate
    The design of the questionnaire should not
    https://pxhere.com/en/photo/1570335

    be taken for granted to be able to get accurate


    data. A bad questionnaire may lead to wrong conclusions since data collected may
    not be correct.
    Remember these when you create a survey questionnaire:

    Let us discuss each thoroughly.


    DESIGN
    • Ask the right questions

    Questions may be “close-ended” or “open-ended.” You can use either


    depending on the data that you want to get from your respondents.
    “Close-ended” questions provide options to the respondents and require them
    to choose one or more items from the list. This is used if the range of answers are
    well known and the options are limited.
    For example: Do you have a computer at home? ___yes ___no

    Writer: JOZIEL B. KHIONG


    Teacher II
    “Open-ended” questions allow the respondent to express their opinions freely
    and they are not restricted by the options. This is used if the answer options are
    multiple and unknown. The answers to the open-ended questions require re-grouping
    before analysis.
    For example: What are the reasons why students do not have computers
    at home? (You can list one or two reasons)
    The options available should be comprehensive so that the respondent can find
    an option which best suits his/ her answer. You can include an “Other: please specify
    ________” category as one of the options. You can also let them check as many items
    as applicable but be sure to mention it in your options.
    For example: Why do you want to have a computer? (You can choose
    more than one)
    I need it for my projects in school.
    I want to play online games.
    My friends have computers.
    I want to use it for business.
    Others: Please specify: ___________________________
    In questions that involve assessing attitudes or giving opinions, a scale with a
    range of responses is preferred to a yes/no answer. Likert scale (usually 5-point or 7-
    point) is a commonly used method.
    For example:
    Questions Strongly Agree Neutral Strongly Disagree
    agree 4 3 disagree 1
    5 2
    We should have a computer
    at home.

    In a questionnaire which has many parts, some of which need not be answered
    by the respondent, filtering is used to guide the respondent to answer only the
    relevant questions. However, you should avoid using too much filtering as this may
    confuse the respondents and make the questionnaire complicated.
    For example:
    Do you have a computer at home? ___ Yes ___ No

    If your answer is no, proceed to question no. 4.


    Avoid double-barreled questions. It is a common mistake that refers to asking two
    things in one question.

    Writer: JOZIEL B. KHIONG


    Teacher II
    For example: Do you have a computer and a laptop at home?
    Avoid ambiguous questions. Be clear and specific in constructing your
    question.
    • Use Appropriate Format

    This is important because the “look” of the questionnaire may decide whether
    the respondent is going to fill it up or not.
    The title should be highlighted and should reflect the main objective of the
    research. If possible, divide the questionnaire into sections according to the content
    (e.g. boxes with bold headings) and it should flow smoothly from one section to another
    with appropriate filtering.
    If your respondents involve older persons, a bigger font size should be used.
    Finally, include a cover letter stating the objective of your study, and your affiliations.
    Most importantly, it should include a confidentiality clause. This is to inform your
    respondents on how you are going to use the collected information.

    • Arrange the questions


    logically

    The order of the questions


    should flow in a logical sequence.
    Start with simple questions and
    move to more complex questions.
    You can start with the demographic
    profile like age, address, and
    others.
    • Make instructions clear

    Instructions should be very


    clear and introductory comments
    should be appropriate. Short
    instructions help the respondents
    understand easily and help them set
    their mind on answering the
    questions.
    The respondents should be
    told exactly what is wanted.
    For example:
    Place a check mark in the
    From:https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d8/Musculoskeletal_s box if you experienced pain on the
    urvey_Nordic_questionnaire.png particular back or X it doesn’t.

    TEST
    A pilot test is a crucial step in the design of questionnaire before data collection
    begins. It will help detect flaws in the questionnaire in terms of content, grammar, and
    format.
    You can ask your colleagues, family, or friends to comment on the
    questionnaire. By doing so, mistakes in terms of content, grammar, and or format will
    be lessened. This should be followed by asking the potential respondents to answer
    the questionnaire and provide their feedback. For those questions which you feel may
    be confusing or sensitive, it is important to ask the respondents to comment
    specifically during the pilot test.
    REVISE
    You will evaluate for general content, organization, and tone, by adding,
    deleting, and organizing information if necessary. When revising, it can be helpful to
    answer these questions:
    Who is your audience?
    Are your objectives enough?
    Have you included enough information?
    Do you have more information than you need?
    Have you chosen the proper words to express your ideas?
    Are you wordy, repetitive, or inconsistent?
    When you have done all of these, you have crafted a good survey
    questionnaire. It does not seem easy at first but when you start doing it, you will find
    it very helpful.
