Frågeutförandets

Frågeutförandets is a Swedish term referring to the act or practice of posing and managing questions—the execution of questioning—in contexts such as surveys, interviews, examinations, and dialogues. The expression is not widely standard in Swedish dictionaries; more common variants include frägeutförande (the execution of questioning) or frägeformulering (question formulation).

Etymology and form: The word combines fråge- (question) with utförande (execution, performance). The form frågeutförandets represents the genitive singular, used to indicate possession, for example: frågeutförandets kriterier (the criteria of the questioning execution). The base noun in definite form is typically frågeutförandet.

Usage and scope: The concept emphasizes how questions are presented, including wording, sequencing, pacing, tone, and contextual framing, and how these factors influence respondent behavior and interpretation. It is relevant to fields such as survey methodology, interview technique, and conversational analysis. By focusing on the execution rather than only the content of questions, फ्रågeutförandets highlights the performative and situational aspects of questioning.

Notes and context: The term is not widely standardized and appears mainly in niche or theoretical discussions. Some authors distinguish between frägeformulering (question formulation) and frågeutförande (execution). See also: question formulation, survey methodology, interview technique.

Examples are scarce in mainstream usage, reflecting its status as a specialized or occasional term rather than a common concept in Swedish linguistics or research methodology.
