摘要: The existence of a mode effect is assessed using data from two matched groups 15- to 16-year-olds (n = 466) who completed questionnaire either as Web-based online version or an “optical mark recognition” paper version. This article focuses specifically on the length answers four open-ended questions included in questionnaire. It was found that although three tended be slightly longer than those version, differences were not statistically significant. Other factors, gender and educational aspirations, appeared have much more influence delivery per se. findings do provide conclusive evidence any with respect questionnaires.
