Clarify benchmark presentation.
- Who should respond
- Adult readers or prospective users evaluating the actual communication or material
- When to ask

Before sending, explain handling, optional participation, and contact details. This example is not sent by the preview.
A useful starting point
Three questions for this specific decision.
Clarify benchmark presentation. These prompts examine group scope, comparison, source 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.
Which comparison condition was unclear?
Read for comparison. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score.
What source detail was missing?
Read for source need. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score.
If nothing was unclear or difficult, say so. Skip questions about steps you did not experience; use not applicable where appropriate. What group did the benchmark cover? Which comparison condition was unclear? What source detail was missing?

Before you send it
Check what your wording assumes.
Would you agree that this entire experience was clear and easy?
What group did the benchmark cover?
The first wording assumes a positive outcome and combines clarity with ease. The revised prompt asks about the concrete situation; respondents may report no difficulty.

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.
