Measurement tools: questionnaire modules

Over the years I have been involved in the design of many surveys in developing countries.

Talking to researchers involved in similar endeavours, I am often asked questions about the design of specific modules.

On this page I will post examples of modules and questions that some of my co-authors and I have designed and/or used in various contexts.
