(Reply to somewhat old post)

In "The Design of Everyday Things", Don Norman points out that having a "push" sign on a door where the most natural action is to pull the door is a bad design.

Having a sign saying "do not take this survey" on a survey that would otherwise look like you should take it seems to be an extension of that.
