An investigation into the effect of questionnaire identification numbers in consumer mail surveys
Article Abstract:
The inclusion of questionnaire identification numbers in mail surveys has a positive effect on response rate and item omission. However, making the numbers more visible through the use of graphics has a negative effect on response rate. It is therefore recommended that the questionnaire contain an explanation for the inclusion of the numbers. The numbers should be also formatted in a way that will not arouse adverse response from the subject.

Other factors that can affect customer choice criteria are also analyzed.
