Why use an open question with a text field?
Using an open question with a text field offers both advantages and disadvantages compared to checkbox or radio buttons:
Advantages:
- Rich Insights: Open questions provide detailed, qualitative responses, offering deeper insights.
- Flexibility: Respondents can express themselves freely, capturing a wide range of perspectives.
Disadvantages:
- Subjectivity: Open responses can be subjective, making analysis more challenging.
- Time-Consuming: Analyzing open-ended responses takes more time and effort.
- Limited Quantification: Qualitative data is harder to quantify compared to structured responses.
