The Social Research Centre writes a methodology report at the completion of each survey.  The intention in doing so is to provide a useful resource for future surveys by documenting exactly what was done and how and to provide continuous improvement suggestions.

Typically these reports include:

  • Details of any questionnaire design, development and testing
  • A full methodological description
  • Feedback from the interviewing team de-briefings
  • A full analysis of response statistics
  • An analysis of survey response / non-response, and
  • A summary of issues for future similar surveys.


    Listed below is a selection of reports that have made a substantial contribution to survey methodology and led to enhanced survey execution.
