Thanks. Any particular reason why you decided to do unguided self-description?
You could include the regular options and an “other (please specify)” option too. That might give people choice, reduce time required for analysis, and make comparisons to general population surveys easier.
This was a specific question and question format that it was requested we include. I wouldn’t like to speculate about the rationale, but I discuss some of the pros and cons associated with each style of question in general here.
