-  Well-written survey question

Using mobile learning applications helps me learn new English vocabulary effectively.”

Why this is good:

- The question is clear and specific

- It measures one idea only (effectiveness of MALL for vocabulary learning)

- The wording is neutral and does not lead respondents toward a particular answer

- It is appropriate for a Likert-scale response

- Poorly constructed survey question

Mobile learning apps are interesting and help students learn vocabulary better than traditional methods, don’t you agree?

Why this is bad:

- It is double-barreled (asks about interest and effectiveness at the same time)

- It is leading (“don’t you agree?” encourages agreement)

- It compares two learning methods in a biased and unclear way

- Respondents may agree with one part but not the other, reducing accuracy
