Hi there. I’m curious if it would be possible to gauge social inequality by asking the respondents a straightforward question like, “Do you believe society is equal?” It seems like a simple and practical approach.

Hey there, my friend! In our community survey on energy saving, we inquired about residents’ water usage habits and whether they waste water in their daily routines. Astonishingly, a large number of respondents claimed they “never” waste water. This is quite unbelievable. Can someone shed some light on the possible reasons behind this response?

We are well aware of the unfortunate fact that pets are abandoned or discarded on a daily basis worldwide. In Hong Kong, there has been a remarkable surge in pet ownership. According to a 2017 report from the Veterinary Surgeons Board of Hong Kong, the number of pet owners has increased by 72 percent, from 297,100 dogs and cats in 2005-06 to 510,600 in 2015-16. Consequently, our team is eager to initiate a pilot pet adoption project and establish a community that fosters a pet-friendly environment. To gather valuable insights, we intend to distribute questionnaires to residents via mail. Can you provide suggestions on how we can improve the response rate?

Hello! I’ve noticed that the term “reliability” frequently appears when searching for community development scales on the website. Could someone kindly provide an explanation of what it means?

Within the realm of community development, it is evident that social inclusion holds great significance. Social inclusion implies that certain elements are present in individuals’ lives, such as being accepted for their true selves within their communities and actively engaging in community activities. Hence, in the context of Hong Kong, I am curious about the specific groups that could benefit from social inclusion services.

Hi there! Upon conducting further research on social determinants of health, I’ve come to understand that individuals’ overall well-being is significantly influenced by the social environment. Consequently, I’m interested in conducting a small survey on this topic. I’d like to know which variables I should consider as potential predictors when assessing social determinants of health.
