Asking chatgpt (accessed via poe.com) to propose a survey questionnaire: a note for Housing Studies students
My request is as follows: "I am a part-time Housing Studies student. I am working on my Research Methods assignment. My research topic is on "An assessment of how the economic and demographic trends affect the home ownership plan of the millennials in Hong Kong". I would like to conduct a questionnaire survey with my friends. The questionnaire should have about 20 questions, all in the forms of 5-point rating scale or option ticking only. Some of the questions should be related to the personal profile of the respondent, some should be related to the respondent's view on how the economic and demographic trends affect the housing market and, finally, some questions should be related to the respondent's home ownership plan. Based on these requirements, could you propose a survey questionnaire to me? Many tks."
The response from chatgpt: "Sure! Here’s a proposed questionnaire for your research on how economic and demographic trends affect the home ownership plans of millennials in Hong Kong.

Conclusion
Thank you for participating in this survey! Your responses will greatly assist in understanding the factors affecting home ownership plans among millennials in Hong Kong."
My request 2: "I also intend to use Excel to analyze the survey data. Specifically, I intend to (i) produce 3 graphs based on the survey data, (ii) produce 5 cross-tabulation tables using Excel pivot table (focusing on the value variables from the 5 questionnaire questions 15, 17, 18, 19, and 20; in this case, 1 table covers one of these question value), and (iii) produce a multiple regression analysis using questionnaire questions 11, "I plan to own a home within the next 5 years" (as the Y variable). Could you propose a more detailed quantitative data analysis design with Excel for me?"
The response from chatgpt is : "Certainly! Here’s a detailed plan for analyzing your survey data using Excel, focusing on graphs, cross-tabulation tables, and multiple regression analysis.
Quantitative Data Analysis Design in Excel
1. Data Entry
Create an Excel spreadsheet to input your survey data.
Each row should represent a respondent, and each column should represent a question from your questionnaire.
2. Producing Graphs
You need to generate three graphs based on the survey data. Here are some suggestions:
Graph 1: Respondent Age Distribution
Type: Bar Chart
Data: Count the number of respondents in each age category from Question 1.
Graph 2: Home Ownership Plan Intentions
Type: Pie Chart
Data: Visualize the distribution of responses for Question 11 ("I plan to own a home within the next 5 years") by counting the number of responses for each rating (1 to 5).
Graph 3: Economic Concerns
Type: Line Chart
Data: Plot the average responses for Questions 6, 10, and 20 to show how views on economic and demographic trends correlate with home ownership plans.
3. Cross-Tabulation Tables
Use Excel Pivot Tables to create five cross-tabulation tables focusing on questions 15, 17, 18, 19, and 20. Here's how to do it:
Table for Question 15: Financial Situation Improvement
Rows: Age categories (Question 1)
Values: Average response for Question 15
Table for Question 17: Knowledge of Home Buying
Rows: Gender (Question 2)
Values: Average response for Question 17
Table for Question 18: Home Ownership and Financial Security
Rows: Employment Status (Question 3)
Values: Average response for Question 18
Table for Question 19: Willingness to Compromise
Rows: Income Categories (Question 4)
Values: Average response for Question 19
Table for Question 20: Unique Challenges for Millennials
Rows: Employment Status (Question 3)
Values: Average response for Question 20
4. Multiple Regression Analysis
Conduct a multiple regression analysis using Question 11 as the dependent variable (Y variable). Here’s how:
Prepare Data:
Ensure that all relevant independent variables (X variables) are included in your dataset. You can use Questions 15, 17, 18, 19, and 20 as the independent variables.
Perform Regression Analysis:
Go to the "Data" tab in Excel.
Click on "Data Analysis" (if not available, you may need to add the Analysis ToolPak via Excel Options).
Select "Regression" from the list.
Set the Input Y Range to the data for Question 11.
Set the Input X Range to the data for Questions 15, 17, 18, 19, and 20.
Choose an output range for the regression results.
Interpret Results:
Look for the R-squared value to understand the model fit.
Analyze the coefficients for each independent variable to determine their impact on the home ownership plan.
Conclusion
By following this design, you’ll be able to effectively analyze your survey data in Excel. The graphs will provide visual insights, the cross-tabulation tables will help explore relationships between variables, and the multiple regression analysis will offer a deeper understanding of factors influencing home ownership plans among millennials in Hong Kong."
My request 3: "Tks. For the pivot table analysis, could you propose cross-tabulation tables with 1 column dimension and 1 row dimension in order to produce a kind of multi-dimensional data analysis?"
