search for a validated survey that you can use to collect data that will help you answer your research question. Consider the following questions:

• What does the survey measure? Does the survey measure one variable or does it measure several?
• How is the survey scored, in other words, does it require that a score be calculated by adding up the values for the responses?
• How was the survey validated (in which population, which measures of validity and reliability have been published for the survey, etc)
