Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Respondent fatigue refers to participants becoming tired or bored as they progress through a survey or questionnaire, potentially leading to decreased effort in responding or less detailed answers. This could explain the observed decrease in response and detail towards the end of Dr. Silva's questionnaire. Response bias and social desirability could also affect results, but the specific pattern observed is more consistent with respondent fatigue. Question wording could also affect responses, but there is no indication from the information provided that this is the cause of the pattern observed.
