Should survey questions be numbered?
Not overwhelm: Numbering your survey questions lets survey respondents know how many questions they have to answer. This helps not overwhelm them and improves the survey response rate. Know progress: When your questionnaires are numbered, it is effortless to track the survey progress.
Does the order of options in a survey matter?
Researchers have demonstrated that the order in which questions are asked can influence how survey participants respond. Preceding questions provide the context to which respondents answer a question (a phenomenon called 'priming'), and changing this context can make a large difference in the results.
