    This document outlines a presentation about designing questionnaires for children and young people. It discusses the differences between quantitative and qualitative research methods. Quantitative research uses fixed questionnaires to measure things like prevalence and uses a representative sample, while qualitative research uses flexible topic guides to understand reasons and explanations and uses a purposive sample. The presentation covers when to use questionnaires with children, how to design good questions using the Question-Answer Model framework of comprehension, retrieval, judgement and response, and techniques for testing questions like cognitive interviews.

    but age only a rough proxy for various aspects of
    development
