How can you build strong UX research surveys?
Creating effective UX research surveys can be valuable for gaining user insights. However, they are not foolproof. Surveys like their cousin, focus groups, can provide weak, watered-down user insights. Worse, Forrester estimates that 80% of organizations leverage the survey as their primary CX/UX research method.
Why this Matters: Using surveys as a primary tool to learn about their users raises the cost of learning. This is risky because surveys can yield incomplete insights. They need to be used alongside user observation/interviews. And how surveys are built and used matters. They need to be carefully constructed and de-risked by techniques like nested conversations and progressive insights.
Learn to craft effective UX Research surveys
In this masterclass, we’ll learn how to construct surveys to extract maximum insights. We’ll walk through the only way you should be building surveys. This method is based on Experience Dynamics 23 years of using methods in UX research. You will learn to avoid the mistakes of when surveys don’t work for UX insights.
First, we will cover survey intent: what is your objective with your survey? Are you looking to recruit participants, gather initial insights, or build on existing data? Next, crafting clear and concise questions is paramount. For example, avoid complex language and ensure each question serves a specific purpose. Use simple, non-leading language to encourage honest responses.
As a UX team, we will learn how to think about structuring questions to create a conversation flow rather than an interrogation. Finally, we will cover the best ways to use surveys to amplify UX efforts, including recruiting, screening, and preparing for Ethnographic interviews with survey insights.
In this masterclass, Frank Spillers will share how-to practical skills to create surveys that gather valuable data and engage participants in meaningful conversations. We’ll emphasize survey tactics and strategy including ways to improve upon survey weaknesses to ensure your surveys are a powerful tool in your UX research arsenal.
Topics we will cover in this Masterclass:
- Using surveys, eyes wide open- know your pros and cons
- What surveys are good for in UX
- Conversation, segmentation and logic branching
- 5 strategy pivots with surveys (as we practice them at Experience Dynamics)
- Q&A
