You will most likely use CAPI is you are conducting a survey during which your enumerators take laptops or tablets into the field and conduct the survey using the CSPro. In this case, you probably will not have a paper questionnaire, so all your questions will be incorporated into the data entry program. CAPI stands for "computer assisted personal interviewing."

You also use CAPI mode for a CATI (telephone) survey.
