Frequently Asked Questions

How do I create a user interview guide?+
Start with your research question. Write 8-12 open-ended questions that explore the problem space without leading the participant. Include warm-up questions, core questions, and wrap-up. Never ask about future behavior ("Would you use X?"). Instead ask about past behavior ("Tell me about the last time you...").
When should I use surveys vs. interviews?+
Interviews for depth, surveys for breadth. Use interviews (5-8 participants) to understand why. Use surveys (100+ responses) to quantify how many. Start with interviews to generate hypotheses, then validate with surveys.
What is a research repository?+
A research repository is a centralized, searchable archive of all your team's research findings: interview notes, survey results, usability tests, and insights. It prevents duplicate research and helps new team members learn from past studies.
