Description

  The present invention relates to a questionnaire display system having a function of reducing a questionnaire response load.

  Conventionally, an electronic questionnaire system that can carry out a questionnaire using a computer has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In the conventional electronic questionnaire system, a device for “new creation and correction” of a questionnaire is made.

JP 2001-273382 A

  However, in the conventional questionnaire display system, no particular contrivance has been made for the method of “displaying” the questionnaire, and the development of a system that can reduce the response load of the questionnaire has been desired. For example, it has been desired to develop a questionnaire display system that can answer a questionnaire intuitively and without getting tired even for a questionnaire with many questions.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a questionnaire display system that can reduce the response load of a questionnaire.

  The questionnaire display system of the present invention is a questionnaire display system comprising a questionnaire server and a display terminal, wherein the questionnaire server is based on a data input unit for inputting data for generating a questionnaire, and the data A questionnaire information file generation unit that generates a questionnaire information file of the questionnaire in a matrix format, and a display file output unit that outputs a display file used for displaying the questionnaire on the display terminal based on the questionnaire information file And the display terminal accesses the questionnaire server and acquires the display file, and a display file acquisition unit that acquires the display file, and the questionnaire in a tile format converted from the matrix format based on the display file. A display processing unit for displaying There.

  Thus, in the questionnaire server, when data for generating a questionnaire (for example, questionnaire questions, answers (options), etc.) is input by the questionnaire creator, the questionnaire information file of the questionnaire is based on the data. Are generated in a matrix format, and a display file is output from the questionnaire information file. The display file is a file used for displaying a questionnaire on the display terminal, and is, for example, an HTML file. The display terminal is operated by a survey respondent, accesses the survey server, acquires a display file, and displays the survey based on the display file. The questionnaire is displayed in a tile format converted from the matrix format.

  According to the present invention, since the questionnaire information file is generated in the matrix format on the questionnaire server, the questionnaire creator can easily create and edit the questionnaire, and the questionnaire is tiled on the display terminal.

  Hereinafter, a questionnaire display system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the present embodiment, a case of a questionnaire display system configured by a server device (questionnaire server) used by a questionnaire creator and a terminal device (display terminal) used by a questionnaire respondent is illustrated. The server device has a function (to be described later) that reduces the response load of the questionnaire, and this function may be realized by a program executed on the server device.

(First embodiment)
The configuration of the questionnaire display system according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the questionnaire display system of the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the questionnaire display system 1 includes a server device 2 and a terminal device 3. The server device 2 is a device used by a questionnaire creator to create a questionnaire, and the terminal device 3 is a device used by a questionnaire respondent to answer the questionnaire. The server device 2 and the terminal device 3 are communicably connected via a network 4 such as the Internet. In FIG. 1, for convenience of explanation, one server device 2 and one terminal device 3 are shown, but the number of server devices 2 and terminal devices 3 may be two or more.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the server device 2 is a so-called computer device, and includes a display unit 5 configured by a liquid crystal display, an operation unit 6 configured by a keyboard and a mouse, an HDD, a memory, and the like. The storage unit 7 is provided. The server device 2 includes a data input unit 8 to which data for generating a questionnaire (data input from the operation unit 6) is input, and a questionnaire information file generation unit 9 that generates a questionnaire information file based on the data. And a display file output unit 10 for outputting a display file based on the questionnaire information file. The questionnaire information file and the display file are stored in the storage unit 7 of the server device 2.

  The questionnaire information file is a questionnaire setting file created by the questionnaire creator, and the questionnaire information file stores information such as questionnaire questions and answers (options) in a “matrix format” (see FIG. 2). . On the other hand, the display file is a file (for example, an HTML file) used for displaying a questionnaire on the terminal device 3, and the questionnaire is displayed in a “tile format” (see FIG. 3). In this case, the display file output unit 10 performs a process of adding a command for calling a program for displaying in “tile format” to the output display file. For the process of calling the program, for example, JavaScript (registered trademark) is used.

  Here, the questionnaire format (matrix format and tile format) will be described. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of a questionnaire in a matrix format. Here, an example of a questionnaire in a multi-answer horizontal matrix format is shown. In this case, the survey respondent can make a plurality of responses (selection) for each row. In the example of FIG. 2, in response to the question “What kind of shop do you buy when you buy fresh food?” (The first rampant question), “Super” and “100 Yen Shop” Answer (option) is selected. Such a “matrix format” is suitable for creating, editing, tabulating and analyzing a questionnaire.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a questionnaire in a tile format. In the tile format, questionnaire questions are displayed one by one, and answers to the question (a plurality of options) are displayed in a square “tile” frame. The contents of the questionnaire questions and answers in FIG. 3 are the same as those in FIG. The tile format has a larger answer (option) frame than the matrix format, so that the answer (option) is easy to see and select. Therefore, it is easy to answer even with a touch panel (a small touch panel of a portable terminal). In the tile format, the questionnaire questions are displayed one by one. In the example of FIG. 3, in response to the question “What kind of shop do you buy when you buy“ fresh food ”?” (First question), “Super” and “100 Yen Shop” After selecting the answer (option), click “Show Next” and the next question “What kind of shop would you like to buy when you buy a soft drink?” Question) is displayed at the same position. Therefore, the user can answer questions one after another as if turning the pages one by one. Thereby, the simplicity of an answer improves.

  In such a tile format, questionnaire respondents answer the question content one question at a time. Compared to the matrix format, the so-called straight answer (always the same answer (for example, the leftmost option) regardless of the question) Such as the answer to be selected) and the answer cancellation (not answering all questions and stopping answering in the middle) can be suppressed. In addition, in the matrix format, there is a problem that an answer shift is likely to occur because a response is requested at the cross between the “choice” on the front and the “question item” on the front side, whereas such a response shift is likely in the tile format. Problems are extremely unlikely. In addition, since there is a list of question items in the matrix format, there is a problem that so-called “relative response” is likely to occur, whereas in the tile format, “relative response” is unlikely to occur. It is easy to obtain an answer (absolute evaluation) as intended by the question creator. Furthermore, in the matrix format, when an image such as a product is inserted into the “question item” on the front side, the image size that can be inserted is restricted (only images with a small size can be inserted), so the visibility of the question item is high. In contrast to the problem of being lowered, the tile format can secure a sufficient space for inserting an image, and can improve the visibility of question items. Thus, the “tile format” is suitable for grasping the contents of a questionnaire and selecting an answer, and can obtain a more accurate answer.

  In FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, an example of a multi-answer (multiple answers allowed) questionnaire has been described. However, a single-answer (one answer) questionnaire may be similarly implemented.

  Returning to FIG. 1, the description of the questionnaire display system 1 will be continued. The server device 2 includes a communication interface unit (communication IF unit) 11 for performing communication with the terminal device 3 via the network 4. On the other hand, the terminal device 3 includes a communication interface unit (communication IF unit) 12 for performing communication with the server device 2 via the network 4. Communication via the network 4 may be wired communication or wireless communication.

  The terminal device 3 is also a so-called computer device, and includes a display unit 13 configured by a liquid crystal display, an operation unit 14 configured by a keyboard and a mouse, and a storage unit 15 configured by an HDD, a memory, and the like. ing. The terminal device 3 displays the questionnaire in the “tile format” converted from the “matrix format” based on the display file, and the display file acquisition unit 16 that accesses the server device 2 to acquire the display file. The display processing unit 17 is provided. In this case, the display processing unit 17 executes a process of calling a program for displaying a questionnaire in “tile format” based on the command added to the display file. As a result, the display processing unit 17 performs conversion from “matrix format” to “tile format”.

  When the questionnaire respondent selects an answer (selection) (selection by the operation unit 14) for the questionnaire displayed in the “tile format” in this way, the answer (user answer) ) And a response transmission unit 19 for transmitting the user response to the server device 2. The user response data may be stored in the storage unit 15 of the terminal device 3. User answers may be sent to the server device 2 one question at a time, or may be sent to the server device 2 collectively to some extent. On the other hand, the server device 2 includes an answer receiving unit 20 that receives user responses from the terminal device 3 and an aggregate file generating unit 21 that generates an aggregate file in which the user responses are aggregated in a “matrix format” corresponding to the questionnaire information file. And are provided. The summary file is stored in the storage unit 7 of the server device 2.
