Methodological Framework

Directions: Using your pre-approved topic, you are to construct a methodological framework for your survey,
by responding to the tasks below. Please double space and use at least 12-point font in your responses (with the
exception of the question grid). Points (listed by each question) are assigned based on accuracy and
thoroughness of your response. See me with questions. Good Luck!

1. Objectives of the survey research {5 points}


 State the objectives of the survey clearly and concisely.
2. Target Population and Sampling Frame {10 points}
 Define the target population.
 Specify the sampling frame.
3. Sample Design {10 points}
 Specify the sampling design.
Will the design provide sufficient information for the objectives?
 State the desired number of responses, along with the corresponding response rate.
How will you ensure an adequate response rate?
4. Method of Measurement {10 points}
 Specify the method of measurement (such as personal interview, mailed questionnaires).
 List the strengths and weaknesses associated with the method?
5. Instrumentation {15 points}
 Create a question matrix. For each question on your survey:
1. indicate how the question relates to the literature
2. indicate the purpose of each question, i.e., what is being gained by asking the
question

6. Pretesting (Field Test) {5 points}


 Outline the pretesting procedures.
Will you use a sample, experts, etc? Is there a defense of this choice?
7. Organization of Data Management {5 points}
 Outline how each piece of datum is to be handled for all stages of the survey.
This should include steps for processing data from the time a measurement is taken until
the final analysis is completed.
8. Data analysis {15 points}
 Outline the data analyses.
This should include detailed specification of what analyses are to be performed.
