Who Will Win The 2016 USA Presidential Election?

Being able to analyze collected survey data in a proper way, is even more important than designing the questionnaire itself

Who Will Win The 2016 USA Presidential Election?

It’s year 2016 and soon the United States Of America will be nominating its 45th president. But who will win the 2016 U.S. presidential election? This is a question, currently asked by the entire world.

So we decided to create a survey asking the world to vote for the next president of The United States Of America. We are aware that this poll is not conducted in a scientific manner, but it gives a pretty interesting picture about whom the world would love to see as the 45th president of the United States Of America.

The 2016 U.S. Presidential Election Poll

The 2016 U.S. Presidential Election Poll was created using pictures, not every voter knows the candidates by name but a picture of the candidate makes it easier to recognise the person and combined with their name it becomes even easier for non-americans to vote and give their opinion. This is a survey meant for the population of the world to vote on 🙂

The actual survey is presented bellow and if you haven’t voted please take time and do so. Every vote is appreciated and gives a better picture of whom the world expects to see as the 45th president of the U.S.

The mobile consumers are growing fast and your surveys have to keep up with the trend. Research conducted by Experian even shows that 53 percent of emails opened where read on devices other than computers, yes it’s a lot!

Even the desktop PCs industry has tasted defeat since the smartphone emerged, the diagram shows clearly how fast the new technology has been adapted and how it’s growing and growing…

The survey respondents of today express a desire to be able to answer surveys on whichever device they are using, meaning that surveys that can be taken on any device will provide higher finish rate. As mentioned 50 percent or more of the survey responses happen via mobile, and it’s rising according to our latest figures.

These mobile respondents often express disappointment when they find that a surveys doesn’t work on their smartphone, often ignoring to finish the survey. This is avoided by using an online survey provider that offers mobile-ready surveys.

New amazing possibilities with mobile friendly surveys

I have done other things during the hour, day or even week, getting the feedback as soon as possible is super important, this helps with the quality of the feedback collected.

Mobile-ready surveys revolutionising the feedback collecting in stores

Using and Analysing Likert Scales Correctly

This guide teaches you about using & analysing Likert Scale questions correctly

What are “Likert Scales” questions

When surveyors want to measure respondents’ attitudes or behaviours, Likert scale questions are very popular choices. A Likert Scale reliably measures people’s attitudes and behaviours by giving them several selection choices, associated with items they can choose from.

You have definitely seen questions with scaled answers such as “Not at all likely < — to —> Extremely likely”. These are typically used in Likert Scale questions.

As mentioned before, Likert Scale questions consist of several items that respondents express their opinions about. These are called “Likert Items”, and should not be confused with the “Likert Scale” itself.

Likert Scale questions are reliable and great tools, because they enable you to get an image of degrees of people’s opinions; unlike a simple “yes / no”, or other rating question types. Such questions will empower you to identify areas that need improvements, and also measure challenging topics.

However, to create these questions correctly and gather highest quality of data, we recommend you to read the following guide. Also, you can find more information about how to use our Liker Scale feature in our user guide.

Sampling and Data Collection

In order to apply the distribution procedure it is usually needed to use some statistical tools and methods to select a small, but carefully chosen group of potential respondents from the total target population. In statistics these useful methods of choosing a subgroup from a population is referred as “Sampling”.
What is sampling?

When a survey has been generated and tested carefully, it is time to send out the survey in order to collect responses. The distribution procedure and data collecting process, is one of the most important parts of the survey processing which has a big influence on further analysis.

Sometimes, even the entire population will be sufficiently small and researcher can consider an obvious way to perform that by sending out the survey to all the possible individuals and then waiting for their responses. This type of research is called a “census study”. Although this method seems to be easy and good, it is not applicable and efficient most of the time. Especially when the target population is huge or simply not entirely reachable.

In order to apply the distribution procedure it is usually needed to use some statistical tools and methods to select a small, but carefully chosen group of potential respondents from the total target population. In statistics these useful methods of choosing a subgroup from a population is referred as “Sampling”.

The goal of sampling is to decrease the cost, save time and reduce the amount of work that it would take to survey the entire target population. Since all further analysis is based on the gathered data, it is necessary to select the samples carefully.
