Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Closed-ended questions provide a set of predetermined response choices for the survey participant to choose from, making it easier to quantitatively measure and analyze the data. This is particularly useful when the dimensions of the variables are well defined. Negatively worded questions introduce confusion and bias, double-barreled questions ask multiple questions in one, and open-ended questions are useful when exploring new or complex topics.
