Use <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-ended_question">open questions</a> to learn about reasoning. If you are using a lot of closed questions in your survey, it is useful to include some open questions to "fish" for less expected answers - e.g. asking a user "why?" they chose a particular option
