- Deciding on the best way to collect your data (e.g. online, face-to-face, postal questionnaire, …)
- Designing questions to get good quality answers
- Deciding on the sample size needed to get estimates that have sufficient accuracy
- Using effect sizes and power to decide the sample size needed for statistical tests
