System and method for creating compiled marketing research data over a computer network
First Claim
1. A system for creating compiled marketing research data over a computer network comprising:
- a researcher server system operable to provide a plurality of questions, to receive corresponding survey responses to the questions and to compile the responses in substantially real-time;
a plurality of respondent systems in communication with the researcher server system, each of the plurality of respondent systems operable to receive the questions from the researcher server system and provide the corresponding responses to the researcher server system; and
at least one client system in communication with the researcher server system, the client system operable to access the compiled responses in substantially real-time, thereby creating compiled marketing research data over the computer network.

Abstract
A system for creating compiled marketing research data over a computer network is disclosed. The system comprises a researcher server system (12), multiple respondent systems (18, 20) in communication with the researcher server system (12) and at least one client system (14) in communication with the researcher server system (12). The researcher server system (12) is operable to provide multiple questions, to receive corresponding responses and to compile the received responses in substantially real-time. Each respondent system (18, 20) is operable to receive the questions from the researcher server system (12) and provide the survey responses to the researcher server system (12). The client system (14) is operable to access the compiled responses in substantially real-time, thereby creating compiled marketing research data over the computer network.

23. A method for presenting a survey to a respondent comprising the steps of:
-
generating a plurality of unpresented questions, each unpresented question comprising an instruction and an answer;
sequentially presenting each of the plurality of unpresented questions to the respondent, thereby each unpresented question becomes a presented question;
sequentially receiving responses from the respondent to each of the presented questions;
modifying an answer to one of the unpresented questions of the plurality of questions based upon at least one of the received responses; and
presenting the modified unpresented question to the respondent. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29)

30. A computer program embodied on a computer readable medium on a researcher server system for creating compiled marketing research data over a computer network comprising:
-
a code segment for creating a plurality of questions to a plurality of respondents;
a code segment for receiving corresponding responses from the plurality of respondents;
a code segment for compiling the received responses in substantially real-time; and
a code segment for creating the compiled responses to at least one client system in substantially real-time, thereby creating compiled marketing research data over the computer network. - View Dependent Claims (31, 32, 33, 34)
