Research-Based Dissertation Survey Design

I need a well-structured paper survey that feeds directly into the data-collection chapter of my doctoral dissertation. The instrument must be academically rigorous, grounded in recent peer-reviewed literature, and framed so that professionals—my target respondents—can complete it in one sitting without fatigue. Content requirements • A balanced mix of multiple-choice items for quick quantitative insights, carefully worded Likert-scale statements to capture attitudes, and a select set of open-ended prompts that invite richer qualitative commentary. • Logical sectioning that mirrors my research questions and variables, with clear skip logic noted where relevant. • Brief scholarly justification for each item or scale (APA citations are fine) so I can defend the tool during my methodology defense. Deliverables • Editable master file (Word or Google Docs) plus a clean PDF ready for printing. • Codebook showing variable names, response ranges, and scoring directions. • One round of revisions after my supervisor’s feedback. Acceptance criteria The final survey must not exceed four printed pages, uses plain language suitable for time-pressed professionals, and aligns item-to-objective mapping I will provide. I look forward to collaborating with someone experienced in academic survey design and psychometrics to get this right the first time.
