Avista is right.
The original design was so long that experts advised shortening. However, since the researchers wanted answers, they determined it would work were they to have different surveys.
My understanding is that everyone got the same first five pages. There were three different versions of pages six and seven, distributed in the same random manner as were the basic surveys.
As I've indicated elsewhere, I continue to urge that every Villager answer the survey. While I was somewhat disappointed in some aspects of this endeavour, I still firmly believe that the findings of the survey will benefit not only our own generation but those following us here in The Villages.
I urge that you not focus on the minor problems with this study, but happily contribute to the overall.
