Hello,

this is the version discussed with Evgenyi. I think this is ok.

After 4 pm I am sending to Elisabetta as a final one.

8. How does the EU affects your life? (more than one option is available):

Basic rule of Europe we can use is free movement of labor and capital
Political stability
As final consumers we pay reasonable prices because free trade reduces the costs
It is easier to work abroad without having to retrain in different national qualifications
EU doesn´t affect my life
EU changes the tradition and customs in my country
My country is dependent towards EU and this is good for us.
My country is dependent towards EU and this is bad for us

8. How does the EU affects your life? (more than one option is available):

Free movement of labor and capital
Political stability
Reduced costs and prices for consumers because of the free trade
it is easier to work abroad without having to retrain in different national qualifications
EU doesn´t affect in my life
EU changes the tradition and customs in my country,
My country is dependent towards EU.

So this would be the final version of the 8 question ?

Elisabetta is going to be at work on 7.01, so I will send her this update, so she can send it to all partners.
Almost nobody checks this forum … 🙂

*My country is dependent towards EU.

It is more general 🙂

[Boleslawiec]

My suggestion for those option ( balanced positive, negative + 1 neutral)

8. How does the EU affects your life? (more than one option is available):

Free movement of labor and capital
Political stability
Reduced costs and prices for consumers because of the free trade
it is easier to work abroad without having to retrain in different national qualifications
EU doesn´t affect in my life
EU changes the tradition and customs in my country,
Eu law is more importnant than law in my country
My country is dependent towards richer countries of the EU.

Shall we add that ?

Staszek

[Boleslawiec]

We have to change answering option in question nr 8,
because while translating right now I came to realise that we also must people a chance to answer
in a way that EU affects their lifes in negative way. Otherwise this question is taking sides.

So we have to add those “negative” options. Ideas ?

Staszek.

*I will go only with the survey- stricly as quantitive type of research. It simplifies the whole thing.

We need to decide asap if have the final version of the questionnaire.

[Boleslawiec]

The idea is fine, but we still havent decided if we leave open-enden questions.

We can write everything in the questionnaire but later we have to do the research.
I say we leave qualitative part of the research in the video interviews, there the respondents may expand on their opinions.
I will the survey stricly as quantitive type of research. It simplifies the whole thing.

• Questa risposta è stata modificata 7 anni, 5 mesi fa da Boleslawiec.

[Boleslawiec]

We’ll try to finish it aspap. Can I send it to you on wednesday/thursday ?

Staszek

[Boleslawiec]

I suggest we do that in one online questionnaire.
Technically it is possible.
For example here

https://www.surveyhero.com/create-multilingual-survey

There are also other multilingual surveys.
You add translations to the questionnaire.
I suggest your technical crew can do it, because you will get the results of the research 🙂

[Boleslawiec]

Yes, the questions You sent on 6 Decembers are the final version.

Second question: you mean who will establish the online survey ?

[Boleslawiec]

I agree.

[Boleslawiec]

Yes, I think Faenza is doing the analysis.

One more thing: we have to decide wheter we leave closed-enden questions only or 1-2 open-ended questions also.

If leave 1-2 open-enden questions we have to be aware there would be 200 or 400 answers miniminum to translate for each of the partners.
Do we have time for that ?

[Boleslawiec]

Hello Elisabetta,

Questionnaire is here

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1l_33K78m-vp3LH4kckvqp9jkfonB87GH0CmdxNqKdVk/edit?usp=sharing

This version is editable. By pasting this link into your browser you gain access to edit the questionnaire.

Next step in my opinion: what we ought to do now is to translate questionnaire into 7 language versions,prepared by each partner city.

Staszek.
