research instrument consisting of a series of questions for the
purpose of gathering information from respondents, with space
provided for indicating response to each question, intended for
submission to a number of persons for reply (Caintic, et. al.,
2008).
Simply, the questionnaire is a set of questions which, when
answered properly by a required number of properly selected
respondents, will supply a necessary information to complete a
