## How to adapt it

Keep the main claim and visual treatment constant while varying only the proof point. Include the actual source and date for every statistic. Do not invent quotes, customers or performance numbers to fill placeholders.

## When to ask

Run after evidence verification and before final campaign copy approval.

## How to interpret responses

Compare comprehension and credibility across proof points, and inspect confusion in open answers. A persuasive response is not substantiation; legal and factual review remains separate.

## Research context

A meta-analysis of environmental communication compared narrative and statistical evidence and found context-dependent effects. Its environmental topic and message conditions prevent a blanket rule that one format always wins; test the actual claim and audience. Read the [Choi et al., Science Communication ](https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/10755470251344211)HTML abstract. This original questionnaire is not a validated research instrument.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is a proof points survey?

14. [![Preview of the Category Awareness Survey Template showing its first question and answer choices](https://www.surveylegend.com/survey-template-media/previews/category-awareness-template-preview.avif) Category Awareness Survey Template Design & branding The demo uses meal-kit delivery as a category, not a particular company. First, respondents describe how they would get ingredients and instructions for a weeknight dinner. Only then does the survey introduce “meal-kit delivery.” That order separates unaided solution routes from aided term recognition. In two category-structure studies, Nedungadi, Chattopadhyay and Muthukrishnan (2001) found that supplying structure affected recall and memory-based choice; their abstract says “provision of structure increases brand recall.” Read the university abstract. The studies did not validate this SurveyLegend questionnaire or show that a seven-item category survey predicts demand. Their result is a reason to record the respondent's unprompted view before supplying a category label.](https://www.surveylegend.com/survey-examples-templates/design-branding-picture-surveys/category-awareness-template/)
