Abstract

Participants increasingly use mobile devices, especially smartphones, to fill out online questionnaires. However, standard questionnaire templates are often not optimized for presentation on smartphones, raising the question of whether such layouts may lead to an unfavorable usability assessment. In this article, we compared a questionnaire template specially developed for mobile devices with two standard layouts. For this purpose, online questionnaires with identical content were implemented using the three templates. The participants (N=402) were randomly assigned to one of the three layout conditions. For comparison, the participants processed a comprehensive questionnaire and then evaluated the usability of the respective questionnaire design with the System Usability Scale (SUS). The results reveal that the respondents tend to rate the layout optimized for smartphones better.
