enkätbaserade

Enkätbaserade refers to methods or approaches that rely on questionnaires or surveys as their primary data collection tool. This term, originating from Swedish, literally translates to "survey-based" or "questionnaire-based."

In research and data collection, enkätbaserade methods involve designing and distributing questionnaires to a target group of individuals to gather information about their opinions, attitudes, behaviors, demographics, or experiences. These questionnaires can take various forms, including paper-based forms, online surveys, telephone interviews where questions are read aloud, or face-to-face interviews using a structured set of questions.

The strength of enkätbaserade approaches lies in their ability to collect data from a large number of respondents efficiently and cost-effectively, especially when utilizing online platforms. They allow for standardization of questions, which can facilitate comparisons across different individuals or groups. However, the quality of data obtained through enkätbaserade methods is highly dependent on the design of the questionnaire, including the clarity of questions, the appropriateness of response options, and the sampling strategy used to select participants. Potential limitations can include response bias, low response rates, and the inability to explore complex issues in depth. Despite these challenges, enkätbaserade research remains a widely used and valuable tool in social sciences, market research, and public opinion polling.
