PLAN A BOUNDED FOLLOW-UP
State the verified review scope.
After testing this change—State the verified review scope.—ask people who encountered the changed arrangement whether this original issue still occurred or did not occur: “Proof requests omit what is being approved.” 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.
Synthetic planning example. A repeat survey alone does not establish causation.

Choose the response format
Make room for the explanation.
| Question | Suggested format | What to preserve |
|---|---|---|
| Which element needed checking? | Optional free text; none or not applicable accepted | Read for check scope. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score. |
| What approval statement was unclear? | Optional free text; none or not applicable accepted | Read for approval meaning. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score. |
| What correction deadline was missing? | Optional free text; none or not applicable accepted | Read for deadline. 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.

A useful starting point
Three questions for this specific decision.
Improve print proof instructions. These prompts examine check scope, approval meaning, deadline. 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.

Would you agree that this entire experience was clear and easy?
Which element needed checking?
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.
