Minor point: I think it would be useful to have, at the top of the census, a box for people to click “I see this census, but don’t want to fill it out”. Such an option could help with understand what % of active users saw but didn’t fill out the census, which is information that, while I can’t immediately see how it is valuable, might be found to be valuable in the future.
Huh. So, the instructions currently say to fill things out starting at the top and if you decide you’re done to scroll to the bottom and hit submit. Only the very first question is required (well, first two at the moment but one of those is going to go away when the census opens) so in theory this should kind of happen automatically. It sort of looks like this happens? There’s a long left tail of people filling out the basic demographic info and then submitting that. People don’t check the first required box (or the first box and like, fill out Age Country and Race) and then hit submit.
Do you think it needs to be an explicit “don’t want to fill it out” box?
The slightly sneaky thing would be to make the link such that I know how many people clicked on it. I’m currently lightly opposed to doing that since it feels slightly sneaky, but it’s also pretty standard practice for basically every survey or feedback link I ever used in corporate.
