Example Demographics Questionnaire
A demographic questionnaire is intended to establish specifics about a selected issue in the society. It can be used to gauge political or religious affiliation, the literacy levels in the society, the unemployment level as well as the association between illiteracy, political consciousness and economic performance in a selected population sample. Such questionnaires are invaluable to governments, private sectors and marketing firms since they are used to gauge the population’s opinion on government policy and product placement depending on gender, race and social class. Demographics questionnaires are different from demography questionnaires in that the latter focus on population studies, while the former focus on polling for marketing, advertising or media studies.
