EXPERIENCEBUILT™ RECOMMENDATIONS
Shelly Bouren
This month, Shelly recommends "People Aren't Robots: A practical guide to the psychology and technique of questionnaire design" by F. Annie Pettit. This book offers insights from an experienced 20-year researcher on crafting questions that treat respondents as real people rather than robots. It covers topics including screeners, data quality, question types, and more. We are excited to implement some of these changes throughout our organization to create more organic and conversational questionnaires.
Kevin Scheppman
Kevin recommends a new Netflix documentary called “Bitconned.” It’s a shocking, sometimes infuriating – and occasionally humorous – peak behind the scenes of a major scam related to cryptocurrency. The brazenness of the lead scammer and his associates is hard to believe. Plus, the scammers get scammed a little themselves. It’s an excellent reminder to proceed cautiously in certain new business relationships, to always perform your due diligence, and to NOT believe everything you see on the internet! The doc runs a brisk 90 minutes so it’s an easy watch.
