No connotative statements (e.g. War is evil.) e. No two part questions (e.g. How old is your child?) f. No pedantic words (e.g. Bush’s demeanor is sophistry.)

Survey Research IV. The Data Collection / Interviewing Stage 3. Performing the Interviews 4. Quality Control Follow-up 3. Briefing Interviewers 1. Training Interviewers

Survey Research V. Data Collection 1. Verifying Response Range 2. Coding the Data 3. Processing the Data 4. Analyzing the Data 5. Reporting the Data
