Question

Description

The question element may have mixed content. The element itself may contain text for the question, with the sub-elements being used to provide further information about the question. Alternatively, the question element may be empty and only the sub-elements used. This is the recommended approach.

The global attribute "ID" (common to all elements) contains a unique identifier for the question. Use of the "ID" is required if you make use of any attribute "qstn" to support a reference from multiple variables, or the backward or forward flow of a questionnaire.

Example

<var> <qstn ID="Q125">When you get together with your friends, would you say you discuss political matters frequently, occasionally, or never?</qstn> </var>
