What Are the Challenges in Using Standardized Questionnaires?
Despite their advantages, standardized questionnaires also present several challenges:
Design Complexity: Crafting questions that are clear, unbiased, and comprehensive can be difficult. Response Bias: Respondents may provide socially desirable answers rather than truthful ones. Language Barriers: In multilingual populations, translating questionnaires while maintaining their meaning is a challenge. Technical Issues: Online questionnaires may face issues like low response rates or technological barriers for some participants.
