Questionnaire Pretesting/Piloting

These courses introduce the broad range of techniques currently available (both traditional and innovative) to test and improve survey questions, both for self-completion and interview surveys. These courses do not cover the testing of standardised multi-item scales as that is covered in the Multi-Item Scale Development course.
