Survey research

Survey research involves collecting data from a sample of


participants using standardized questionnaires or interviews.
These survey questions are closed-ended, meaning they involve
multiple-choice, single-select, or Likert scales, which asks users to
rate responses on a numbered scale. Survey research aims to
gather insights about how participants perceive or engage with a
particular topic. When done at scale and through careful
representational sampling, these results can be extrapolated across
the larger population.

For example, if you wanted to conduct a survey to assess customer


satisfaction, you might design a questionnaire soliciting feedback
about product features, ease of use, and overall user experience.
You could target the survey to a representative subset of the
audience that had used the feature at some point and deliver it via
push notifications or email. This could be used to create
percentages, averages, and correlations that reflect how users feel
about the new feature.

Perhaps certain demographics used the feature more frequently


than others, and may respond to marketing built around it. This sort
of actionable insight would only be possible via survey research.
