Presenting survey items on screen one at a time in Internet-based research has been known in the literature as the "one-item-one-screen" (OIOS) method (Birnbaum & Reips, 2005; Reips, 2002, 2010; Reips & Krantz, 2010).
It is obvious that there will be more missing data in All at Once presentation, because already filled items are not submitted until the submit button is pressed.
