A similar decline in survey response can be observed in all wealthy countries. Efforts to raise response rates have used such strategies as monetary incentives or repeated attempts to contact sample members and obtain completed interviews, but these strategies increase the costs of surveys. This review addresses the core issues regarding survey nonresponse. It considers why response rates are declining and what that means for the accuracy of survey results. These trends are of particular concern for the social science community, which is heavily invested in obtaining information from household surveys. The evidence to date makes it apparent that current trends in nonresponse, if not arrested, threaten to undermine the potential of household surveys to elicit information that assists in understanding social and economic issues. The trends also threaten to weaken the validity of inferences drawn from estimates based on those surveys. High nonresponse rates create the potential or risk for bias in estimates and affect survey design, data collection, estimation, and analysis. The survey community is painfully aware of these trends and has responded aggressively to these threats. The interview modes employed by surveys in the public and private sectors have proliferated as new technologies and methods have emerged and matured. To the traditional trio of mail, telephone, and face-to-face surveys have been added interactive voice response (IVR), audio computer-assisted self-interviewing (ACASI), web surveys, and a number of hybrid methods. Similarly, a growing research agenda has emerged in the past decade or so focused on seeking solutions to various aspects of the problem of survey nonresponse; the potential solutions that have been considered range from better training and deployment of interviewers to more use of incentives, better use of the information collected in the data collection, and increased use of auxiliary information from other sources in survey design and data collection. Nonresponse in Social Science Surveys: A Research Agenda also documents the increased use of information collected in the survey process in nonresponse adjustment"--Publisher's description. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Social surveys|xResponse rate.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85124080 650 0 Social surveys|xResponse rate|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85124080|vStatistics.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001414 650 0 Nonresponse (Statistics)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2005000322 650 7 Social surveys|xResponse rate.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1123403 650 7 Nonresponse (Statistics)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1736695 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Statistics.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423727 655 7 Statistics.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026181 700 1 Tourangeau, Roger,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n85349473|eeditor. 700 1 Plewes, Thomas J.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2004140834|eeditor. 710 2 National Research Council (U.S.).|bCommittee on National Statistics,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n85155245|eissuing body. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tNonresponse in social science surveys. |dWashington, D.C. : National Academies Press, [2013] |z0309272475|w(DLC) 2012361408|w(OCoLC)830351854 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=867693|zOnline eBook.
