This paper presents InternetQuestion and Answer, a Web-based survey development and implementation technology, which has been designed for constructing on-line surveys for educational, medical, or administrative purposes. The system, called iQ&A, is a three-tiered database-backed Web system that has been developed to support a wide range of applications. Surveys are considered as general data collection instruments and include a wide field of application. iQ&A facilitates rapid survey construction and administration which is ideally suited for biomedical research as well as other research and educational activities. Full report management capabilities provide the survey publisher on-line access to current information on survey responses. Current implementations of this technology in the areas of biomedical applications of clinical trials, longitudinal research, and other research-related systems are presented. Further refinement of the current system should lead to a powerful general survey technology for broad-based applications.
