My research partner and I are required to conduct a survey for a course credit. We realize that many surveys and questionnaires are posted on the net, but it would be greatly appreciated if you could take a few moments to answer our questionnaire, and provide us with your feedback as well: notes of any statements considered ambiguous, awkwardly phrased, etc. would be welcome. If there are any items on either the questionnaire or the information sheet with which you are uncomfortable, please feel free to leave them blank or to note these items as such when offering feedback.
