Simple poll. Did you take the DDI survey?
Is there a new one? I didn't notice it. I did one a few months back.
I despise surveys like that. Every person who "fails" the qualifying questions is another voice not heard; and if done right the qualifying questions can eliminate the "wrong" sort of people, to ensure that particular viewpoints fare better (or worse) in the survey than reality would dictate.Interesting so far 6 of every 7 poll respondents took the DDI survey. I wonder if the 4000 surveys they received only count the respondents that were given the full survey by answering the initial qualifying question(s) correctly.
I recall a number of people answered the initial one or two questions that fired a skip pattern that bypassed the rest of the survey directly into a thank you page.
Note: These types of qualifying questions are in almost 90% of surveys run by any reputable marketing company. Our sister company, a health & wellness marketing analysis company, will often spend weeks formulating the question order, question skip patterns, and appropriately neutral questions to generate the unbiased responses they need for their trends reports.
The purpose of these kinds of skip patterns is to make sure you are polling a group that has much more vested interest or a more valid opinion about something.I despise surveys like that.
