Hi Andrea ~ I like your proposal for Q10. For Q16, I would just propose we change the text of the question to be "and/or" to match the selector choice. :-) ~ Amy -----Original Message----- From: The NDSA Standards working group list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Goethals, Andrea Sent: Tuesday, May 22, 2012 11:53 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [NDSA-STANDARDS] please review revised version of the staffing survey Hi Amy, Yes, Q10 is complex. You are right that the 2nd to last column is intended to mean we're not currently doing it but would like to. We could make the column heading say explicitly that. We can also split this up into multiple questions as I started to with adding #9. Based on feedback from Mary I think that #9 should be reworded to "Which of these activities are considered part of the digital preservation function at your organization, whether or not you are currently doing/outsourcing this activity?" (Because there was ambiguity as to you if they should only select things they are currently doing/outsourcing). Is the proposed rewording clear enough? We're currently asking many things in #10: - whether or not they are currently doing them - if they are currently doing them whether its in-house, outsourced (or both because you can select more than one) - in the case that they are not doing it, if they would like to add it to their program (actually this may be redundant information. With the proposed rewording of #9 we will know that any activities listed in #10 that they didn't say they are currently doing are activities they would like add) - whether they would like to outsource activities Here's one option for #10. We could simplify it to just have the first 2 columns (currently done in-house, currently outsourced). Then we could have a follow-up question that lists the same activities as #10 and asks which they would like to outsource (we would know that any they don't select they would want to do in-house). -------- Q16 - Currently they can select more than one so checking both asks as an and. We could change it to be more explicit with radio buttons and have an option that includes both of the first 2 options. Does that work better?
