Abstract
Embodiments introduced describe single-action surveys, wherein a survey requires a single action only, such as a single click on a mouse, a single touch, tap, or stroke on a touch screen. Each single action represents selection of one survey answer and the survey window closes automatically after a single action is performed. The survey may be arranged to start after a target event is concluded. In addition, a survey may end by itself within a substantially short period of time in the absence of any selection action.
Claims20
A system having a display and stored executable instructions, comprising:
- 1) connection component for connecting said system to an electronic device or a communication network;
- 2) survey means for generating a survey window on said display for conducting a survey;
- 3) said window configured for receiving a single action for said survey;
- 4) said system arranged such that said single action causes selection of one of a plurality of predetermined options, said options comprising a plurality of predetermined messages, said system configured such that selecting one of said messages causes closing of said window;
- and
- 5) transmission component for transmitting the survey related information to a survey database via said device or said network.
An electronic apparatus having stored executable instructions, comprising:
- 1) connection component for connecting said apparatus to an electronic device or a communication network;
- 2) survey component for starting a survey session from a first session;
- 3) receiving component for receiving a single action performed by a user;
- 4) said apparatus arranged such that said single action causes selection of one of a plurality of predetermined options, said options comprising a plurality of predetermined messages;
- 5) closing means for ending said survey session after said selection process is performed;
- 6) resuming means for resuming said first session or staring a second session;
- and
- 7) transmission component for transmitting the survey related information to a survey database via said device or said network.
A method performed for generating a survey comprising:
- 1) providing an electronic device having a display and stored executable instructions;
- 2) generating a survey window for said survey on said display;
- 3) said survey window configured for receiving a single action for said survey;
- 4) said method arranged such that said single action causes selection of one of a plurality of predetermined options, said options comprising a plurality of predetermined messages, said method configured such that selecting one of said messages causes closing of said survey window;
- and
- 5) transmitting the survey related information to a survey database via a first device or a communication network.
A method performed for conducting a survey comprising:
- 1) providing an electronic device having stored executable instructions and a first session;
- 2) generating a survey session;
- 3) said survey session configured for receiving a single action for said survey;
- 4) said method arranged such that said single action causes selection of one of a plurality of predetermined options, said options comprising a plurality of predetermined messages, said method configured such that selecting one of said messages causes ending of said survey session;
- 5) resuming said first session or starting a second session;
- and
- 6) transmitting the survey related information to a survey database via a first device or a communication network.
