What is the purpose of a survey?

  1. To introduce a new idea

  2. To encourage something

  3. To measure attitudes or behaviors

  4. To find out how people think

The correct answer is: To measure attitudes or behaviors

A and D are incorrect because the purpose of a survey is not to introduce new ideas or simply find out how people think. Surveys are conducted to gather information about attitudes or behaviors that can be used for research or business purposes. B is incorrect because while surveys can be used as a tool to encourage certain behaviors or actions, this is not their primary purpose.
