Note: Some surveys or questionnaires are published with the articles. To identify them, run a topic-specific article search in a database, including the keywords "survey" or "questionnaire" if necessary. Sometimes the article does not include the actual survey or questionnaire but rather refers to one that was conducted. Search in the bibliography for a reference to the questionnaire/survey in question or to the original paper where the instrument was published in this situation. Find the instrument using that information.
