Abstract

The 2001 HFES Membership Survey was designed to provide data for the executive council in several key areas. This case study examines the survey development processes used in creating the questionnaire and collecting the data. An examination of the demographic characteristics of survey respondents and the existing membership revealed reasonable similarity between the groups. Interestingly, the response rate for the pilot study was surprisingly greater than the response rate for the actual survey. The authors examine some of the issues that may have contributed to the discrepancy.
