Questionnaire vs Participants?

Sometimes respondents let us down with straight lining and satisficing.

But how many times do we let THEM down with questionnaires that are boring at best and painful at worst? Why don't we, as researchers, bite the bullet and make our questionnaires short and simple?

Only then can we blame participants for data quality issues. Until then we haven't ruled out alternative explanations for bad data.
