Online survey respondents answer a questionnaire that resides on the internet. Group self-administered survey respondents take the survey in a group context. Each respondent works individually, but they meet as a group, which allows the researcher to economize. Drop-off survey questionnaires are left with the respondent to fill out. The administrator may return at a later time to pick up the completed questionnaire, or it may be mailed in. Mail survey questionnaires are mailed to prospective respondents, who are asked to fill them out and return them by mail.
