questionnaires

Forms seeking answers

Questionnaires are forms containing a series of questions designed to gather information from respondents.

They're standard tools in research, surveys, and data collection: Please complete the questionnaire before your appointment.

Unlike interviews, questionnaires are typically self-administered, with respondents reading and answering on their own.
