CHOOSE YOUR STARTING QUESTIONS

Keep only prompts your respondents can answer. All questions remain available below.

3 questions selected. Nothing is submitted.

Read the answers carefully

What these answers cannot establish.

No environmental impact claims.

Bins use colors without text labels. This is an illustrative pattern, not observed customer data. No environmental impact claims.

A useful starting point

Three questions for this specific decision.

Clarify event sorting instructions. These prompts examine category meaning, example gap, useful sign. 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.

QUESTION 01

Which bin category was unclear?

Read for category meaning. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score.

QUESTION 02

What item example was missing?

Read for example gap. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score.

QUESTION 03

What sign helped you decide?

Read for useful sign. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score.

Before you send it

Check what your wording assumes.

BEFORE / LEADING

Would you agree that this entire experience was clear and easy?

AFTER / CONTEXTUAL

Which bin category was unclear?

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.

A worked interpretation example

From a comment to a practical next step.

Illustrative scenario. These are not customer results.

01 / OBSERVE

Keep the finding specific

Bins use colors without text labels.

02 / INVESTIGATE

Choose an action to test

Add locally verified item labels.

03 / FOLLOW UP

Check the experience again

After testing this change—Add locally verified item labels.—ask people who encountered the changed arrangement whether this original issue still occurred or did not occur: “Bins use colors without text labels.” Invite a concrete explanation, including none or not applicable. Compare participant context and sample differences; a before-and-after survey alone does not establish causation.

From question to next step

Make the feedback useful.

03

Choose an action

Add locally verified item labels.

Choose the response format

Make room for the explanation.
