2-1 Discussion: Questionnaire Critique When it comes to the design of questionnaires, the most important aspects that are vital include the fact that the questionnaire should be written in language that is concise, easy to understand, and plain for the individuals who are participating in the study. The questions should be arranged in such a way that the sequence is logical and has a smooth flow. This is an additional notion that the questions should be arranged in. It is recommended that you steer clear of utilizing "self- report questionnaires" when developing a survey because they have the potential to affect the validity of the results due to the fact that participants have a tendency to be biased when describing themselves (Rosnow & Rosenthal, 2014). On the other hand, it is advisable to submit the responses at various points throughout the process of creating the survey. The questionnaire that was chosen for the research project was published under the title "The Parent Play Questionnaire: Development of a Parent Questionnaire to Assess Parent-Child Play and Digital Media Use" (Ahmadzadeh,Lester, Oliver, & McAdams, 2020). This information was obtained from the questionnaire that was used for the research project. The questions, have a reasonable flow, which makes it simple to follow along with them and react to them. The questions are likewise simple to comprehend, and the wording that they choose to employ in the formulation of some of them may have the potential to be damaging to the outcome. The questions are straightforward to understand. In addition, the questions should not be difficult to understand. As an illustration of this concept, it’s not believed that a parent would use the phrase "I am too busy to play with my child when he or she wants to play with me," which has the potential to result in answers that are biased. This is because the phrase has the potential to cause someone to respond in a manner that is prejudiced. Ahmadzadeh, Y. I., Lester, K. J., Oliver, B. R., & McAdams, T. A. (2020). The Parent Play Questionnaire: Development of a parent questionnaire to assess parent–child play and digital media use. Social Development, 29(4), 945-963. Rosnow, R. L., Rosenthal, R. (20140328).
