Compare participant context and sample differences; a before-and-after survey alone does not establish causation.

A useful starting point
Three questions for this specific decision.
Clarify judging process descriptions. These prompts examine process scope, criterion clarity, disclosure need. Choose only questions your audience can answer. A missing detail can be answered with none; do not assume an issue occurred.
If nothing was unclear or difficult, say so. Skip questions about steps you did not experience; use not applicable where appropriate.
What process did the description explain?
Read for process scope. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score.
Which criterion definition was unclear?
Read for criterion clarity. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score.
What disclosure reference was missing?
Read for disclosure need. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score.

What process did the description explain?

| Question | Suggested format | What to preserve |
|---|---|---|
| What process did the description explain? | Optional free text; none or not applicable accepted | Read for process scope. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score. |

Make questions optional where appropriate. If you add a rating scale, label its endpoints, keep one idea per question, and retain a follow-up for reasons. These examples are not a validated measurement instrument.

How should I read the third answer?
