Survey Types and Modes
Selecting the correct type or mode of survey is critical to obtaining valid, reliable and useful response data. During survey planning we will normally review the goals of the survey, the environment in which the survey is to be conducted and the target audience at which it is directed, in order to determine the correct mode for the survey.
Understanding the Target - Modes
Understanding the target audience and the environment in which they live or work is critical and we will often recommend that a short target profiling exercise be conducted to provide information on characteristics and behaviour that will inform the design of the survey. The profile information will help to determine the modes of survey to be used as well as the timing and methods to be used to promote the survey.
