Anketimet

Anketimet is a term that occasionally appears in discussions of survey methodology, but it does not correspond to a widely recognized organization, standard, or established theory. In the published literature, the expression is rare and often appears as an informal or provisional label rather than a defined concept.

The origins of the word are not clear, and its usage varies by author. It seems to fuse elements related to questionnaires or surveys with a suffix suggesting collection, processing, or compilation. Because of this ambiguity, anketimet is typically defined by its context rather than by a fixed, universally accepted meaning.

In practice, the term is sometimes used to refer to one of several related ideas: the set of survey instruments used within a project, a repository or catalog of questionnaires and associated materials, or the methodological approach for integrating results from multiple surveys. It can also denote the process of compiling, harmonizing, and analyzing questionnaire data across sites or time periods. Given the lack of a standard definition, clear context is essential when the term is encountered.
