the way the questionair should be filled in is perfectly well explained so
the no adjustments and every possible adjustment labels for example are not
really needed. near each heading, radio buttons wit 1 to 5 and then a n/a
radio button would be fine.
cheers

Hello
Thanks for looking at this for me.
Originally the questionnaire was split up into different sections, but at
the end of each section was a link saying "Click here to continue". The
theory was something to do with if people were using a particular screen
resolution each section would fit on a screen. However, the actual
questionnaire carried on on the same page - so the "Click here to continue"
links were just like markers to the particular sections. I said that Please
cClick here to continue" links all over the place was confusing - they
should be labelled with the different section names. But it was decided to
remove the markers completely!! However, there's no reason why the
different section labels shouldn't be headings so that they can be navigated
to - and this is really what should be done! As regards this being
usability rather than accessibility, I'm interested in that as well -
because someone can have a website that (hopefully) complies with all the
technical accessibility requirements but that isn't specially usable.
I completely agree with you over the last questions where you have to rate
your experiences from 1 to 5, and have pointed this out. My suggestion was,
cold this be a drop-down list with the numbers, including what each one
stands for? This was turned down because the person designing it is
thinking of how it looks on paper and it was pointed out to me that if you
can see a line of radio buttons across the screen you know how many options
there are.
