Definicja open question

Question type in which no answer possibilities are predefined in the questionnaire, instead a freely formulated answer is expected.

Open questions are suitable for such topics where there are not yet any findings and which should be deduced within an explorative study. They can also be included as an addition to closed questions to even out the danger that results are distorted due to an overlooked answer.

Different from closed questions, an automatic evaluation of open questions is very restricted, but they offer the possibility to receive very informative data.
