Sammendrag	Bayesian survey research applies Bayesian statistical inference to survey data, combining prior knowledge or beliefs about population parameters with observed questionnaire responses to produce posterior probability distributions. Unlike null-hypothesis significance testing, this approach quantifies uncertainty directly, incorporates prior evidence, and yields probabilistic statements about parameters of interest — making it especially powerful for small samples, sequential data collection, and contexts where substantive prior knowledge exists.	Survey research is a quantitative (and sometimes mixed-methods) design in which a researcher collects standardised self-report data from a sample drawn from a defined population, using a questionnaire or structured interview. It is the dominant non-experimental strategy for describing population characteristics, estimating prevalence, mapping attitude distributions, and testing bivariate or multivariate associations across social, behavioural, and health sciences.
