Research on the use of MuseScore by the blind users

This single part survey is to research on the use of MuseScore notation software by blind and visually impaired users. The important questions that this survey seeks answers for are mainly how accessible MuseScore is, up to what degree those users are able to freely use the software without getting any help as well as the limitations the software has when it is used with screen reader applications.

Since the fields and backgrounds of visually impaired musicians differ greatly from each other, if necessary, making more than one mark on the answer keys in the questionnaire and writing an explanation in the personal note section at the end of the questionnaire will enable us to reach more comprehensive and healthy results in our academic research.

We would like to thank you for the time and effort you have taken to participate in our survey.
