Hi all,
Please could you all take 5 minutes out of your time to fill in a
short 10 question survey for me.
It will help me greatly with my studies.

My survey is about Rural Tourism in the UK.
This includes climbing, walking, camping, culture, wildlife, sport and
countryside etc.
If you have participated in any of this in the UK before you would be
a big help to me.

Thank you :)

Quite happy to do so but your survey does not contain enough information to
allow me to complete it.

Q2. I have no absolutely no idea which Social Class code applies to me. Some
elaboration would be helpful, maybe examples against each letter code?

Your questions do not state whether you want a single box ticked or multiple
boxes ticked for the answers. The survey permits multiple answers where only
a single answer is applicable (I can belong to up to 4 age groups
simultaneously).

Q3. Is this my country of origin (birth) or the country from where my
journey to visit rural UK origininated?

Q5 permits me to answers both Yes and No to the question. Q6 has the correct
Yes/No buttons.

Q7 I am inferring that since Q7 uses a superlative you require only a single
answer but it is unclear.

I know that this sounds a little picky but I have created numerous surveys
and experience tells me that unless you make each question as simple as
possible to understand and impossible to make a process error people either
give up or the data received is unsound.
You need to look at it through the eyes of an idiot (for which many would
say I am supremely qualified) in order to find the sources of error,
misunderstanding or misinterpretation.

Where you have a tickbox for 'Other', in my experience it is a good idea to
also have a text box for more detail. It may not be essential to your study
but it can spark off whole new avenues of research that you have never
considered

Incidentally, having been involved in a similar exercise for Scottish
tourism, I note that you have not (perhaps intentionally) included transport
links. In one of the surveys I did we found that transport links was one of
the biggest single obstacles to rural tourism for the low waged and the
elderly (basically people who do not have their own cars).

Good luck with the dissertation.
