Surveys can be composed of open-ended or close-ended questions. Open ended questions have the following benefits except for ____________________.
1)allowing a more exhaustive list of response possibilities
2)alerting us to the multiple dimensions in a topic
3)evoking rather brief responses from respondents
4)conveying a richness of feeling often missing from closed questions
And your answer is?
Ms. Sue,
I believe that the answer is 4. (conveying a richness of feeling often missing from closed questions, because open-ended questions often provide richer information.)
Please re-read the question, especially "except for" -- how do those two words affect which answer is to be chosen?
Writeeacher,
3)evoking rather brief responses from respondents
Since closed-ended questions are typically multiple choice.
Right!
Thank you!
You're welcome.
Be sure you're on the look-out for those backwards phrased questions. The word "except" usually indicates you're looking for the opposite of what you THINK you're looking for!
