The questionnaire is probably the most common form of data collection tool used in nursing research. There is a misconception that anyone with a clear grasp of English and a modicum of common sense can design an effective questionnaire. Contrary to such common belief, this article will demonstrate that questionnaire design is a complex and time consuming process, but a necessary labour to ensure valid and reliable data is collected. In addition, meticulous construction is more likely to yield data that can be utilized in the pursuit of objective, quantitative and generalizable truths, upon which practice and policy decisions can be formulated. This article examines a myriad of fundamental issues surrounding questionnaire design, which encompass question wording, question order, presentation, administration and data collection, amongst other issues.
问卷可能是护理研究中最常用的数据收集工具形式。有一种误解认为，任何掌握了英语且有一点常识的人都能设计出一份有效的问卷。与这种普遍看法相反，本文将表明问卷设计是一个复杂且耗时的过程，但却是确保收集到有效且可靠数据的必要工作。此外，精心构建的问卷更有可能产生可用于追求客观、定量且具有普遍性的真理的数据，据此可以制定实践和政策决策。本文探讨了围绕问卷设计的众多基本问题，包括问题措辞、问题顺序、呈现方式、管理和数据收集等其他问题。
