A survey question for which a discrete set of response alternatives or specific answers is provided for respondents is a type of structured question because they are question that can be answered only in a specific way, such as true, or false; yes, no, or don't know; not good, good, fair, or very good.
Structured questions are questions that are close ended, the interviewer prepares a discrete set of predetermined questions or standardized question. A structured question can only be answered in a certain way. For instance, true or false; agree or disagree; yes or no, very good, good, fair, or bad etc.
Structured questions require less thinking from the respondent in answering the questions, as there are options to just pick from, hence leading to higher responses from respondents. It also makes it easier for the researcher to analyze the result and also leads to a more accurate data because of the higher responses from respondents,
