Part 1: Planning the Survey (Chapters 1–4): Guidance on the common “how much,” “how long,” and “how do we” questions, with practical advice on making the most of your survey.
Part 2: Writing Survey Questions (Chapters 5–9): Methods for choosing and writing survey questions guided by an understanding of the anatomy of survey questions and the effects of human memory and cognition.
Part 3: Survey Response Options (Chapters 10–16): Data-driven guidance on leading practice in survey item formats, starting with a taxonomy of response options and literature reviews and continuing with original experimentation on the effects of the number of scale points, labeling, item tone, primacy bias, acquiescence bias, cultural effects, and numerous presentation effects.
Part 4: Data Collection & Analysis (Chapters 17–22): Several step-by-step guides on gathering raw survey data, graphing survey data
You might wonder—do we really need another book on surveys? There are a lot of books on survey design and analysis. What makes our book different? This book is for UX researchers, CX professionals, designers, product owners, marketers, and anyone else who has a vested interest in collecting data through surveys. In a nutshell:
- Survey Best Practices Are Constantly Evolving: Surveys may be an old research method (around for millennia depending on the definition), but the methods and practices are constantly evolving in response to changing styles, new technologies, published opinions, and findings from experiments.
- Surveys Remain a Popular Method: Despite criticisms of surveys being a “lazy” research method by some UX research mavens (an unwarranted and overly general criticism, in our opinion), surveys are widely used in UX and CX research (just behind user research and usability testing in popularity according to the User Experience Professionals Association’s 2022 survey of its membership).
- Surveys for Politics are Different than Surveys for Professionals: We focus on surveys for UX and CX research. This matters because much of the literature on survey research and design focuses on politics and social issues, which appear to be more prone to response biases such as acquiescence and social desirability.
- The Largest Collection of Research on Response Options: Much of our book provides critical literature reviews of research that is often cited to support survey design practices (with a focus on the impact of variations on response options) and data from our own experiments to investigate variations in survey design methods in the context of UX and CX research. In writing this book, we conducted dozens of experiments, using data from over 10,000 respondents to provide up-to-date recommendations (and debunk some lingering misconceptions).
Our goal with this book is to help fill in the gaps in conducting and analyzing surveys, differentiating conventions that aren’t backed by data from practices where research shows clear pros and cons of response options or techniques. We have also developed a companion online course that covers the bulk of the material in this book, available online at MeasuringUniversity.com.
