Nonsampling Error in Social Surveys

Autor David E. McNabb
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 sep 2013
A welcome and much-needed addition to the literature on survey data quality in social research, Nonsampling Error in Social Surveys, by David E. McNabb, examines the most common sources of nonsampling error: frame error; measurement error; response error, nonresponse error, and interviewer error. Offering the only comprehensive and non-technical treatment available, the book's focus on controlling error shows readers how to eliminate the opportunity for error to occur, and features revealing examples of past and current efforts to control the incidence and effects of nonsampling error. Most importantly, it gives readers the tools they need to understand, identify, address, and prevent the most prevalent and difficult-to-control types of survey errors.

Recenzii

“Provides the best non-technical introduction to the nonsampling errors I have ever read.”
“My doctoral students came from a variety of backgrounds. Most of them have little to zero survey research background. The book will serve to ignite class discussion and move it to the highest level.”
