I'm uncomfortable with the question distinguishing between "richer than most" and "richer than nearly all". Logically if I answer "richer than most" is true.
There justification of the answer makes little sense as you have to count the number of countries which are richer to find out and not take the EU average.
Yes, I admit some of the questions could have been better phrased. If I do another test, as I hope to, I'll try to crowdsource this. It would have been easier to come up with good questions if I had had social scientists and scientists in relevant fields on board. Also, I think that would minimize unclarities, and so on (more eyes, etc).
That said, we did a fair amount of pre-testing on Mechanical Turk and on friends.
I had an issue with the phrasing of "are GMOs good for humans", that's a different claim than the linked article makes, which is that GMOS are "good for human health". I put I don't know because we don't know what the environmental impact will be in the long run, and if that will be a net positive or negative for humans.
