Answer to Question 1

The proposal and the final research report will contain much of the same information. The proposal describes the data collection, measurement, data analysis, and so forth, in future tense. In the report, the actual results are presented. In this sense, the proposal anticipates the research outcome. Perhaps the best way to let management know exactly what kind of results will be produced by research is by using dummy tables. Dummy tables are placed in research proposals and are exact representations of the actual tables that will show results in the final report with one exception: the results are hypothetical. A researcher can present dummy tables to the decision maker and ask if he or she can make a decision based on findings like these.

Answer to Question 2

T
Questionnaire design is based on information needs; these must therefore be specified prior to developing any questionnaires.
