1. The Significance of Online Surveys
• Organiza)ons
use
surveys
for
many
reasons,
including:
Ø Measuring
the
impact
of
marke)ng
campaigns
Ø Revealing
customer
opinion
Ø Determining
employee
sa)sfac)on.

help
solve
your

2. Striving for Survey Simplicity
• The
best
surveys
u)lize
these
main
principles:
Ø Clarity
Ø Fairness
Ø Consistency
• Limit
your
content
when
crea)ng
an
online
test
-‐
the
longer
the
survey,
the
less
likely
par)cipants
will
be
willing
to
complete
it.
• Short,
focused
surveys
deliver
beRer
quality
and
quan)ty
of
responses
-‐
five
minutes
or
less
to
complete
is
generally
ideal.

Title
2. Striving for Survey Simplicity
• Each
ques)on
should
be
brief
and
focused
on
a
single
objec)ve.
• Avoid
leading
ques)ons
that
force
respondents
to
fully
agree
or
disagree
with
statements.
• Strive
for
closed
ques)ons
whenever
possible,
providing
specific
choices
for
easier
results
analysis
using
your
easy
test
creator.
Ø You
may
choose
open-‐ended
ques)ons,
but
this
requires
more
)me
to
analyze
responses.
Ø It's
preferable
to
use
ra)ng
scales
consistently
to
measure
the
direc)on
and
intensity
of
opinions.

Online Test Generator
• Begin
your
survey
with
a
short
introduc)on
and
follow
a
logical
ques)on
order,
placing
easier,
broad-‐based
ques)ons
earlier
before
advancing
to
more
poten)ally
sensi)ve
or
personal
ques)ons.
Ø Respondents
will
be
more
likely
to
answer
unexpected
ques)ons
if
they
understand
the
reasoning
behind
it.
• Avoid
irrelevant
ques)ons
that
might
frustrate
your
survey
takers.
• Rou)ng
technology
and
responsive
logic
in
exam
creator
so-ware
can
enable
par)cipants
to
skip
ques)ons
if
