Abstract Even in this randomized trial era, surveys of patients and professionals remain an important epidemiologic technique for capturing cross-sectional or longitudinal data, providing fundamental insights about health and disease.1 There are several alternative methods for collecting such data, which include conducting face-to-face or telephone interviews; circulating a questionnaire by mail, fax, or e-mail; and eliciting responses to a survey posted on an open Web site. Other methods that are currently less widely exploited include digital interactive television; use of a software package to capture survey data, either by mailed floppy disks or as a Java applet over the Web; and automatic telephone menu systems. The preceding article by Schleyer and Forrest2 explores some of the issues arising from a Web survey, but it may be useful first to consider the range of survey methods that are available
