This would leave the respondent unsure that it would take time for him/her to answer the question, and could even lead to an unanswered question in the survey. To account for this uncertainty, the question could be phrased, "Based on what you can recall (or based on your recollection), when did you first start chewing gum?" While the answer could not be accurately true, the response provided would at least be considered as reported/recalled by the respondent.
How much discretionary buying power do you have each year?
The term "discretionary buying power" is too complex for the respondent to understand. At best, the researcher could ask the respondent if s/he could provide the percentages or proportion of expenses s/he incur every year, and identify the products or services these percentages/proportions are spent on every year.
Why did you decide to attend Big State University?
While this question is acceptable to ask the respondent, the researcher must also indicate within the question that s/he knows there could be more than one reason why the respondent decided to attend Big State University. The question can be rephrased as follows: "What are the reasons that made you decide to attend Big State University? What else? Anything else?" Probing questions are added to ensure that all possible answers are exhausted from the respondent.
Do you think the president is doing a good job now?
This question can be answered by a simple "yes" or "no." If the researcher is looking for more depth in the respondent's answer than a simple yes or no, then s/he could rephrase the question to, "Do you think the president is doing a good job now? Why? Why else? Anything else?" Probing questions are added to ensure that all possible answers are exhausted...
Business Drivers Multidimensional scaling and factor analysis are a couple of different statistical techniques that can be used to understand the drivers of a business. MDS is a technique that renders multiple data points in a relational manner -- data points that end up closer to one another are expressed visually as such, while those that are fairly far from each other in the key variable are expressed as being far.
The effectiveness of promotional strategies is highly dependent on their ability to resonate and be relevant to the target audiences over time (Reference). This is the basis of the research being undertaken; to determine which promotional tools and strategies are the most effective in attracting, training and retaining the most talented and motivated volunteers for the London 2012 Olympic Games. The following are the aims and objectives of this analysis.

This research proposal looks to determine how the selection of a given cloud platform impacts user intention, satisfaction and long-term adoption. In order to evaluate the contributions of each of these platforms, each is briefly reviewed within the context of this literature review. First, the most commonly used one in start-up cloud database service providers, Amazon Web Services (AWS), is analyzed. AWS is comprised of the following components: Amazon DynamoDB

To elaborate, he used his 'transistor' to build logic circuits that program each cell's behavior. For instance, he was able to tell a cell to change color in the presence of both a specified two enzymes. Remarked Kleem (online): "Endy envisions plant-based environmental monitors, programmed tissues and even medical devices that "make Fantastic Voyage come true," (Kleem, 04.02.13). In the first (grainy) image below, Endy's DNA "buffer gates" flash different
