Most of the guidelines and methods available to measure and assess
survey quality are based on qualitative descriptions. In practice,
they are difficult to implement. Hence there is a demand to develop
a quantitative tool to effectively measure and assess survey
quality. The tool developed in this book enables survey researchers
and/or commissioners to make a holistic assessment of the value of
the particular survey(s). It is an Excel based audit following all
stages of the survey from inception, to design, construction,
execution, analysis and dissemination. At each stage a set of
criteria are applied to assess quality. Scores attained against
these assessments are weighted by the importance of the criteria
and summed to give an overall assessment of the stage. The total
score for a survey can be obtained by the combination of the scores
for every stage weighted again by the importance of each stage. The
advantage of this tool is to construct a means of survey assessment
which can be used in a diagnostic manner to evaluate and improve
survey quality. The target audience of this book may comprise
students, scholars, practitioners and researchers.
