New Thread for Minimum Wage

I think our questions should be clear and free from any subjective interpretation. I think it would be best if we avoid questions that reflect thoughts, believes, personal opinions etc...Rawan I like the question you proposed because it's simple and to the point which will hopefully produce more accurate results. If i might suggest we should also focus on a field, geographic location or when asking the question to make it more narrow. For example do you agree/disagree that increasing minimum wage is necessary for reducing poverty in British Columbia?

I'm not sure I understand exactly what you're saying here... You don't want to ask people questions that reflect thoughts or beliefs but your question example asks for people's belief/ personal opinion about the effect of minimum wage on poverty. I agree with you about adding "British Columbia" to the question to narrow the scope a bit.

I like Rawan's question personally - as Hanak mentioned, it's simple, and to the point, which is what a survey question should be.

In response to Hanak, I do like what you're doing there with your question as well, but your question is completely opinion based and you don't want that. Care to clarify?

I think Hana is trying to simplify the questions by making them purely financial and institutional. Which I think is a good strategy towards creating clearer, simpler questions.
