How important do you think standardized test scores are to a fifth-grader's education
(circle one number):
1 2 3 4 5
Multiple-choice: When you want respondents to pick the best answer or answers from
among all the possible options, consider writing a multiple-choice question. Multiple-
choice questions are easy to lay out on a written survey. Include specific directions
about how many answers to select directly after the question. Example:
Why don't you use the school's cafeteria services? (circle one):
Ordinal: When you need all possible answers to be rank ordered, ask an ordinal
question. Example:
Please write a number between 1 and 5 next to each item below. Put a 1 next to the
item that is MOST important to you in selecting an on-line university course. Put a 5
next to the item that is LEAST important. Please use each number only ONCE.
Categorical When the answers are categories, and each respondent must
fall into exactly one of them.
