This is because they give the respondent complete freedom of response and permit a greater depth of response (Fowler, 2009). They are also easier to administer and simple to formulate. Also, the respondent’s responses may give an insight into his or her feelings, background, hidden motives, interest and decisions (Zikmund, 2003).The research processAfter identifying the problem, questionnaires are formulated in short; easy and simple words and the objectives to be accomplished are included in the questionnaires.The items and pages in a questionnaire are numbered and brief and clear instruction is included.Information to be obtained from the questionnaire is analyzed and items stated as positively as possible.The layout of the questionnaire is organized in such a way that it is easy to complete.The questionnaire is unbiased an d arranged in a logical order.A sample selection of the population is done and given the questionnaires to fill out in a stipulated time duration.The questionnaires are collected later and an analysis is made to report the findings gathered from the population sample and implement the findings.In most cases, a follow-up letter is sent after a questionnaire has been given out to request the subjects to respond to the questionnaire on a specific deadline date (Saunders, 2003).
