Good point. I was thinking, "Red = negative as in disagree, Green = positive as in agree". Trying to make use of that existing mental model. Perhaps there are other ways. > * Why does "neutral" have a smaller clickable areas? Again - bias folk away > from picking it.

Haven't decided yet if I'm going to keep it that way, but it does help address the mis-click possibility, because at least you'd be able to see what you clicked for a second before moving on. If you mis-clicked, you can use the arrows to go back one question and change your response. On another note, this design also gets you through an entire survey without the possibility of seeing a single error message. As in, click wrong button > go back > change it. Can't advance until you've answered the current question. No validation needed. I'm very happy about that. I'm a big advocate of eliminating errors. Regardless, I love coming up with new approaches to things, but unconventional designs definitely bring up challenges. :) -r- ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
