Question library

Market research survey questions

Strong market research separates what people have done from what they say they may do. Use screening, behavioural questions, decision criteria, and open context to understand a clearly defined audience.

Build from behaviour

Begin with eligibility and recent behaviour, then ask about needs, current alternatives, decision factors, satisfaction, awareness, and future intent. Randomise long option lists where order could bias selection.

  • When did you last face this need?
  • What did you use instead?
  • Which factors affected your choice?

Interpret intent carefully

Stated purchase intent is directional rather than a guaranteed forecast. Document recruitment source, compare respondent mix with the target population, and distinguish prompted awareness from unaided recall.

  • Record sample source
  • Separate recall from recognition
  • Do not equate intent with demand
