Although questionnaires are widely used in construction management studies, designing the instrument has proven to be a difficult task among research students. This article explored the process of developing and testing questionnaires for construction management studies focusing on managing risks in Public Private Partnership (PPP) housing projects. The processes of developing questionnaire were grouped into four stages consisting of the background, conceptualization, design and instrument testing and administration. Using the processes identified, a flowchart indicating step-by-step stages for developing questionnaires was designed. Results of validity and reliability tests conducted on certain aspects of the questionnaire indicated that the instrument can be relied upon to generate acceptable data for scientific research. The main contribution of this paper is expanding the scope and simplifying the design of questionnaire among upcoming researchers in the field of construction management. This study recommends the design for students undertaking construction management related studies.

This article argues that confusion exists as to exactly what constitutes a public-private partnership (P3). This confusion, it is maintained, creates problems for public procurement professionals when advising elected officials and government administrators on the appropriate uses of P3s. The article looks first at the imprecise language used by organizations (governments and others) to define, describe and discuss P3s. A proposed consensus definition of P3s is then introduced together with an accompanying proposed taxonomy of P3 types. The article then demonstrates how the proposed consensus definition and taxonomy can bring more clarity to discussions about P3s and their uses. The article concludes by suggesting that some public procurement standard setting organization should undertake the task of developing and promulgating more prescriptive guidance on P3s.
