I'm conducting an anonymous quantitative survey on SurveyMonkey and some participants left the majority of the questions unanswered. How can we encourage participants to completely answer all questions in the survey?
Its a tricky question. May be some incentive!
Did you do pilot testing before running the main survey? Many a time respondents find questions offending/ response anchors not appropriate etc. The demographics of people who left the survey mid way, may provide you some insight as why some kind of people are not responding to some specific questions.
all the best!
Hi Pham,
there‘s a customer service section in surveymonkey that can answer your question vía email.
Also, there‘s a free feature that lets you select a box that says ”This question requires an answer”
You could even write in your own “error“ message.
if the person tries to skip to the next page, they’ll be prevented and that message will show up.
Of course they can always just close their browser and the survey will be labelled incomplete until they have to answer..
Brandon DeRiggs Your last sentence describes exactly what they did, closing their web browser and never coming back to finish the survey.
