Face-to-Face or Sequential Mixed-Mode Surveys Among Non-Western Minorities in the Netherlands: The Effect of Different Survey Designs on the Possibility of Nonresponse Bias

Abstract This article compares the quality of response samples based on a single mode CAPI survey design with the quality of response samples based on a sequential mixed-mode (CAWI-CATICAPI) survey design among four non-Western minority ethnic groups in the Netherlands. The quality is assessed with respect to the representativity of the response samples and the estimated potential for nonresponse bias in survey estimates based on auxiliary variables and the response rate. This article also investigates if these designs systematically enhance response rates differently among various sociodemogr... Mehr ...
