6. At this point in your planning, what decisions have you made about those choices?
7. What are some ethical issues that each of these methods raises?

2nd part
Write a survey of at least 8 close-ended questions.
As well as one question developed by another researcher.
Write a survey of at least 8 close-ended questions which will be asked of participants in your study. This will be the quantitative methods portion of your proposal. This survey should include at least one question developed by another researcher (cite where you got it from).
Before beginning to write or select your survey questions, create a list of at least two concepts that you intend to measure with the questions on the survey (include brief summary of concepts).
The survey should be intended for administration to the general public (Professionals in the field you are questioning) as a face-to-face interview. The questions and layout of the survey should reflect the fact that you will be reading them out loud to the respondents.
You need to pay attention to the general principles of writing good questions.
