2012 Commercial Buildings Energy
Consumption Survey (CBECS)
Mall Establishment Questionnaire – Form EIA-871J
HOW TO USE THIS QUESTIONNAIRE
The 2012 Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) will be conducted using a computer-assisted interview programmed using a software called Blaise. A professional interviewer will administer the questionnaire to the building respondent using a laptop computer. The purpose of this paper representation of the questionnaire is to document the question text, fills, and skip patterns within the 2012 CBECS questionnaire.
PLEASE NOTE: All the question fills and skip patterns will be handled automatically by the software and will be transparent to the interviewer, so this document appears much more complex that the actual CBECS instrument.
Each question is formatted as follows:
A1 |
Question name SASVAR |
ASK |
|
FILL |
|
Question text
|
|
RANGE |
|
NEXT |
|
The black box (A1 here) contains a question number, followed by the Question name and the SAS variable (if applicable) in the same row. If the SAS variable area says “see below,” the variables are found within the Question text box.
The ASK line describes what needs to be true for a question to be asked.
The FILL line describes any question fills and the conditions under which each appears. If the fill appears as something such as “A2 [Square footage]” this means that the figure given in question A1 will be filled in.
The Question text box shows the question text, and any other elements for each question, such as Show Card indicators or instructions, and the answer choices for each question.
The RANGE line is only applicable to numeric questions. It shows the range of answers that will be accepted by Blaise.
The NEXT line details the routing for the next question. Follow these instructions in order. Once a true statement is reached, go to the question indicated by the arrow ().

ASK |
IF Supplier information was provided for any energy source |
As I mentioned earlier, we may need to contact your energy supplier to obtain the energy consumption. In order for the energy companies to release this information to us, we need to have an authorization form signed by you, or by some other representative of your company.
Should the authorization form be signed by you or someone else?
