Les premières questions. Ce sont des questions «amorces». Elles permettent la prise en main par le répondant du style du questionnaire. Elles sont faites pour détendre c’est-à-dire portent sur des sujets non embarrassants et dont les réponses sont évidentes. Pour le dépouillement, ces réponses ont peu d’importance. L’intitulé des questions amorces est plus important que les réponses. 2, record 2, French, - question%20amorce
