HELP! What should I do with the results from my pilot test?

D

Hi guys,

I'm hoping a quantitative researcher can point me in the right direction. I've conducted my pilot survey and I think I'm about ready to launch it for real, but I'm so worried that I haven't done enough analysis on it to ensure that it's good to go!

Can anyone tell me what the main tests are that one should conduct before a quantitative survey goes live?

I've done scale reliabilities, frequencies and descriptives, but I'm not sure what else I need to do...

Anyone??

hi,

Try to write a short paper on that - like 6 pages conference paper - and talk about it with your supervisor/ present it somewhere to get feedback. Compare your results with existing knowledge. See if you can persuade people- if not, what is missing?

Best of luck, well done for running a pilot, I wish I had some time to run a pilot before been thrown in the deep sea...
