Survey documentation is an integral part of methodically sound survey research. These
guidelines aim at providing the persons coordinating survey translations (e.g., researchers
responsible for survey translation in a larger study, or those wishing to translate and adapt an
existing instrument for their own research) with a framework within which they can plan and
document survey translations both for internal as well as for external purposes (publications or
technical reports). It summarizes different aspects of translation documentation and reviews
elements to be included in such a documentation.
