Surveys are a frequently used method to collect data in medical education research. As such, it behooves medical educators involved in scholarly work to understand the best practices in the selection, development, implementation, and reporting of surveys used when conducting research and curriculum development projects. This review article prepares the reader to name the steps of designing and administering high-quality surveys in medical education research, identify the characteristics of both well-written and poorly written survey questions, and apply the principles of survey design to write and revise surveys for use in their own research.
调查是医学教育研究中常用的数据收集方法。因此，从事学术工作的医学教育工作者有必要了解在开展研究和课程开发项目时，调查的选择、开发、实施及报告方面的最佳实践。这篇综述文章旨在让读者了解医学教育研究中设计和管理高质量调查的步骤，识别编写良好和编写不佳的调查问题的特征，并应用调查设计原则来撰写和修订用于自身研究的调查。
