Do Leading Questions Cause Data To Be Misrepresented?

I agree that leading questions causes data to be misrepresented. Leading questions influences participants to provide a particular response. The purpose of research is to collect objective data from participants. Leading questions creates researcher bias and is more subjective. In order to be objective, researchers must develop questions that respondents will be able to answer providing their own personal attitudes and perspectives. Questions that begin with “are you more likely” are leading respondents to answer in a way that does do not provide quality data. Leading questions are basically yes or no questions. These type of questions do not really help in really understanding how people feel. Research questions should use the Likert scale.
This way researchers can understand the perspectives of the respondents. Using the scale provides more accurate responses and eliminates bias in the research.
