Mixed mode designs are increasingly important in surveys and large longitudinal studies are progressively moving to or considering such a design. In this context our knowledge regarding the impact of mixing modes on data quality indicators in longitudinal studies is sparse. This study tries to...

There is no doubt that more people are taking web surveys using their mobile devices. In non-English speaking countries, in particular, more respondents complete online surveys using mobile devices than using desktop or laptop computers. This phenomenon has a huge implication on survey research...

Although the connection between culture and extreme response style (ERS) has received much attention from researchers, the relationship between acculturation and ERS has not been fully explored. This study utilizes the 2003 Detroit Arab American Study to examine the impact of acculturation of...

Using multiple modes to collect data is becoming a standard practice in survey agencies. While this should save costs and decrease non-response error it may have detrimental effects on measurement quality. This can happen because different modes have distinct measurement biases which, when...

The quasi-simplex model makes use of at least three repeated measures of the same variable to estimate its reliability. The model has rather strict assumptions about how various parameters in the model are related to each other. Previous studies have outlined how several of the assumptions of...
