MLA does not offer specific advice on citing a survey that you have created yourself. However, a survey is essentially a type of interview (MLA 5.7.7), therefore we suggest that you mirror that format.
Last name, First name. "Name of survey." Survey. DD Month YYYY.
Example of print survey citation:
Abilock, Damon. "Hot Lunch Options." Survey. 6 June 2009.
If the survey or poll was conducted online, follow the instructions in 5.6.2b for "A Work Cited Only on the Web," providing as many of the following elements as you are able:
- Name of the Web site
- Publisher
- Date of publication
- Medium of publication - include the word "Web"
- Optional URL: A unique and persistent link or the search page URL.
Example of web survey citation:
Abilock, Damon. "Hot Lunch Options." Survey. Name of Web Site. Publisher of Web Site, 6 June 2009. Web. 29 Aug. 2009. <http://www.noodletools.com>.
