This questionaire is an improved version of a questionaire we were given. The original questionaire has faults. This questionaire in particular was about illegal downloading, it asked for their name when most people wouldn't want to give that information away. When writing the questionaire you have to think about how the audience will answer, and how their answers will help. Closed ended questions should be given options to choose from, this makes people more likely to answer the question.
Good- the main problem with my questionnaire was that it wouldn't produce specific, analysable data which was useful.I would argue that even in your improved questionnaire, question 7 for example is not very useful to the researcher
