Researcher generally works with an outline of the instrument if it is complex and encompasses a variety of topics. Questions for relevant content area are then drafted or borrowed or adapted from other instruments. Researcher must carefully monitor the wording of each question for clarity, sensitivity to the respondent's psychological state, freedom from bias and reading level. Questions must then be sequenced in a psychologically meaningful order and in a manner that encourages'cooperation.

When the instrument has been drafted, it should be critically reviewed by experts, and pre-tested with a small sample of respondents. Pre-test. is a trial run to determine insofar as is possible whether instrument is clearly worded and free from bias
