Doing a big survey on work, stress, and productivity. Feedback / anything you're curious about?

Perhaps you could provide some more background? Who is this being run by? Where will it be advertising and sampling from? What data will be released? What analyses will be run, and what hypotheses are you particularly looking into? Does it build on any earlier surveys by reusing questions?

I would like a question about the amount of hours that the person works and sleeps per week (sleep can also asked as per day).

For the sake of open science it might be worthwhile to change "You may use my data for a research paper" to "My data can be used for a research paper".

Why don't you ask for the age in years, instead of providing existing batches?

For a topic like this, I might not lump in "doctoral or professional degree." I imagine medical doctors, lawyers, people with PhDs in the liberal arts, PhDs in the sciences, and PhDs in engineering disciplines might all have materially different work/stress/productivity profiles.

Similarly you could separate "Engineering/CS" into two choices. Mechanical engineers and software "engineers" don't really do the same kind of work.

I am both a consultant and an employee, so I wouldn't know how to answer "what is your current role" unambiguously.

I would add some questions about commute time. Definitely an important factor when assessing stress and work satisfaction.

I would add "dance" as a choice for "Do you regularly participate in any of the following activities?"

Background: My wife and I are both studying psychology, I'm doing my M.Sc. she does a very similar study on health risks at the workplace (an adaptive one, if general questions are answered "unfavorably" (i.e. indicator a health risk at the workplace is present), then a handful of more in-depth related questions to pinpoint the exact problem are given.

I didn't take the test yet, but just by reading ChristianKI's objections/suggestions (with which I agree) you need to really clarify the questions.

Here's a helpful piece of advice I've been given: Don't think about if the question is understandable, ask yourself if there is any chance at all that it could possibly be misunderstood by someone somewhere and change it as often as you need until that is no longer the case.

Discussion of different office set-ups. Open, own office, shared with one person, etc.

Suggestions for books that might inspire good questions:

flow, flourish, deep work, gtd, 7 habits, secrets of productive people.

What is your biggest source of stress usually?
What is your biggest source of stress today?
relationships, overworked, financial problems, religion/spirituality/morality, health/exercise, other.

Social media for news sources
Craft activities as a kid
Rather not say for income
How much do you donate?
Lizardman constant in various places
Expand the email question to include -1000, 5000, 10000, 50000
Regularity of exercise
How long is your commute?
Commute by (select as many as relevant): car, bus, walk, bike, taxi/uber, plane, ferry.

"If you're in business and your revenue is different than income, how has your revenue changed in in the last two years?"

I'm not exactly sure what "in business" means here. Does it mean the person owns the business in question?

"I go to sleep at the same time."

Different people are going to have a different idea of what "same time" means.

"How many colleagues do you interact with on a typical day?"

I'm not exactly clear what this question means. If I write an email that's read by 10 people, does that count as "interaction"? If I say "Hello" to 4 colleges while taking the elevator, does that mean I have interacted with 4 collegues?
