I assume that the survey will go out after they used OSM's editor. I that
case I'd change the scale to 1-5. For the question "In your opinion, is OSM
easy to use?" 1 = Not at all easy to 5 = Extremely easy to use.

The second thing I'd recommend is to figure out how you plan to use the
information. For example, if people rate easy to use a 1, Not at all easy,
what will you do with the information. A follow up question might be
helpful to figure out why they feel that way. Poor internet would be a
different fix than not understanding the UI.
