Survey & Drawing Instruments
Engineering surveys are particularly useful to gain the actual values of variables under study, and the relationship bonding among them. Surveys are suitable as a balance to other observations. This adds knowledge through "triangulation" as one of several methods.
Survey approach has the following Strengths
- Surveys are easy to administer.
- Surveys are simple to score and code.
- Surveys determine the values and relations of variables and constructs.
- Surveys can be reused easily, and provide an objective way of comparing responses over different groups, times, and places.
