This book is a practical guide to two inseparable skills: designing sound survey research and building the questionnaires that carry it out. Most research methods textbooks treat these as a minor subtopic inside a broader course. This book treats them as a subject worthy of full, dedicated study — from formulating a research question through to writing a finished, persuasive report.
The book is organized into five parts:
Every technique is demonstrated with a fully worked example rather than described only in the abstract — a real coding scheme, a real Likert-scale questionnaire item, a real chi-square calculation carried through step by step. Two appendices extend the book's practical value: a complete, ready-to-adapt questionnaire template, and an illustrative sample research report showing how a finished study built from that questionnaire actually reads.
No prior background in statistics is assumed. By the final chapter, readers will be able to design a sound study, build the questionnaire that carries it out, distribute it, analyze what comes back, and report it — the full arc the title promises, survey research and questionnaires both.
