Seeing as this is my first REAL research project, it’s been fascinating to find out just how much goes into the preparation. I’ve never done a questionnaire study before—in any format—and while I knew that it would be tricky, my research advisors have really opened my eyes to the number of discrepancies one could fall into if they don’t take care when writing the questionnaire. My questionnaire is an adaption of an NIH one, but that doesn’t mean it will work in Rio. Thus, the past two months have been a lot of pre-testing and adapting to make sure that my questionnaire is OK for when I close it.
