Evaluating public policy discussion

An investigator is writing a questionnaire asking police officers about their career satisfaction. Respond to ONE of the following items relative to this questionnaire:

• *Compare and contrast the value of open-ended and closed-ended questions on this survey.
• *Would you recommend that she include ranking questions? If so, suggest at least two questions and describe the appropriate ranking scale.
• *Should she include questions asking for demographics? Why or why not? If yes, suggest some questions and describe their placement on the survey.
• *The investigator pretests the questionnaire on students in an undergraduate criminal justice class. Comment on the adequacy of her pretesting strategy. Suggest an alternative audience for the pretest.
