• Which errors may happen when using the questionnaire within a survey?
• How can I test, that the questionnaire works well?The starting point of the course is the Total Survey Error paradigm. According to this, errors that arise in the context of the sample (representation errors) and the questionnaire in use (measurement error) are both to be considered in combination. Students will develop the basic principles of questionnaire design by studying the literature, preparing homework and discussions during class. In addition, methods for testing questionnaires (questionnaire design, systematic evaluation, cognitive pretests) will be well-tried by practical group works.
