Survey Methodology Consulting - Survey Instruments
Standardized, scientifically successfully tested survey instruments are an indispensable prerequisite for the quality of the data collected in a survey. The development of a questionnaire that is correctly understood and answered by the respondents therefore requires expertise in survey methodology. Our GESIS experts will check your items, scales and questions for suitability for your project. If you are planning an international or multilingual survey, we can advise you on suitable translation methods. Benefit from our many years of experience for your project!
