    "How often is your contribution acknowledged in a useful way?",
    "Do you prefer private feedback, public acknowledgment, or another format?",
    "What recent contribution deserved more recognition?",
    "Which type of acknowledgment feels least useful to you?",
    "How clearly are contributions recognized across different roles?"
  ],
  "question_notes": [
    "Ask whether acknowledgement was useful for the recipient; frequency alone can conceal recognition that feels irrelevant.",
    "Let the recipient choose a format without implying that public praise is the desirable answer.",
    "Surface overlooked contributions without requiring names or comparisons that could expose colleagues unfairly.",
    "Identify formats that the recipient would prefer to avoid, not just formats they enjoy.",
    "Check whether less visible roles are understood; differences in public exposure do not establish differences in contribution."
