Interviews and Questionnaires

The idea
A questionnaire is completed by the respondent alone; an interview is conducted by a researcher who can follow up and probe.
In practice
A questionnaire reaches thousands cheaply; an interview reaches fewer and learns why an answer was given.
Where people slip
The interviewer's presence shapes answers — a cost paid for the depth gained.
