In writing about your research when you have completed the project you need an explanation of your methodology so that others can understand the significance of what you have done and make sense of how it all worked. The methodology piece says why you did what you did. It also enables you to write about what you did not do and why, and about the weaknesses or limitations of your project as well as its strengths. Every research has a limitation of some sort and it is perfectly acceptable to identify the weaknesses of your own study.

Overview and Length Counts
How long should a survey be? The length of a survey depends on what
you need to know and how many questions are necessary so that the resulting
answers are credible. How much time do they have available, and will they pay
attention to the survey?

Getting the Survey in Order
All surveys should be preceded by an introduction and the first set of
questions should be related to the topic described in it.

voluntary listed their telephone numbers. Our questionnaires will take no more than 4 minutes. You can interrupt me at any time.
May I ask you the questions?
[If YES, continue. If NO, say thank you, express concern for bothering the person, and hang up.]
[Continue here.]
The first question asks you about your overall satisfaction with the apartment. Do you consider it [read choices]
Definitely Satisfactory

• Move from the most familiar to the least.
• Follow the natural sequence of time.
• See to it that all questions are independent.
• Relatively easy-to-answer questions (including demographic questions such as age
or occupation) should be asked at the end.
• Avoid many items that look alike.
• Sensitive questions should be placed well after the start of the survey but also well
before its conclusion.
• Questions should be in logical order.

A questionnaire´s appearance is vitally important. A written self-
administered questionnaire that is hard to read can confuse or irritate
respondents.
Do: put just one question on a line. Leave plenty of space for responses.
Don´t: squeeze several questions together. Do not abbreviate questions.

The Survey is Put on Trail: Guidelines for Pilot Testing
Guidelines for Pilot Testing
1. Try to anticipate the actual circumstances in which the survey will be conducted and make
plans to handle them.
2. You can start by trying out selected portions of the survey in an informal fashion.
3. Choose respondents similar to the ones who will eventually complete the survey.
4. Enlist as many people in the pilot as seems reasonable without wasting your resources.
5. For reliability, focus on the clarity of the questions and the general format of the survey.
6. To help bolster validity, you should ensure that all relevant topics have been included in the
survey (given your resources)
7. Test your ability to get a range of responses. If people truly differ in their views or feelings,
will the survey capture those differences.
