Best Tips For Scoring Good Marks » Sensitive Questions
When some of the questions that must be asked
request personal or confidential information, it is better to locate them at
the end of the questionnaire. If such questions appear early in the
questionnaire, potential responders may become too disaffected to continue,
with nonreturn the likely result. However, if they reach the last page and
find unsettling questions, they may continue nevertheless or perhaps return
the questionnaire with the sensitive questions unanswered. Even this latter
result is better than suffering a nonreturn.
