Pitfalls of International Comparative Research: Taking Acquiescence into Account
Franzen, Axel; Vogl, Dominikus - In: Jahrbücher für Nationalökonomie und Statistik 231 (2011) 5-6, pp. 761-782
Summary Acquiescence can be the source of a serious response bias in international comparative research. We demonstrate … resolved when the different levels of acquiescence are taken into consideration. As it turns out, respondents in poorer nations … in Asia and Eastern Europe have higher levels of acquiescence than respondents in richer Western nations. Thus …
