Summary

Key findings:
  • Use of emojis can work effectively across all devices (desktop/laptop, tablets as well as mobile).
  • Survey satisfaction was higher with the use of emojis, especially among women, younger groups.
  • Emojis are viable if used with care.
  • Choose wisely-not all facial emoji’s are understood equally.
  • Take a mobile optimized, response enhanced approach to survey design (M.O.R.E.)
  • However, emojis are more appropriate for some categories (not health, legal issues).
Finally, the presentation notes the ARF will continue to explore this topic.
