The presentation of survey requests represents an easily modifiable feature of survey communications that can in some contexts affect response propensities. Here, we examine how two features: the framing of the participation request (informed by prospect theory) and the inclusion of targeted appeals based on demographic background (age or…

Roman Auriga; André Pirralha; Friederike Schlücker; Götz Lechner; Anna Passmann – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2025
Mailing campaigns are a way to keep longitudinal survey respondents engaged. While mailings usually include a survey answer request, sometimes respondents are contacted between-waves to update contact information or simply to keep respondent contact. Research on the actual impact of these between-wave contacts on response rates is scarce. This…

Terry A. Beehr; Minseo Kim; Ian W. Armstrong – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2024
Previous research extensively studied reasons for and ways to avoid low response rates, but it largely ignored the primary research issue of the degree to which response rates matter, which we address. Methodological survey research on response rates has been concerned with how to increase responsiveness and with the effects of response rates on…

Jochen Ranger; Christoph König; Benjamin W. Domingue; Jörg-Tobias Kuhn; Andreas Frey – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2024
In the existing multidimensional extensions of the log-normal response time (LNRT) model, the log response times are decomposed into a linear combination of several latent traits. These models are fully compensatory as low levels on traits can be counterbalanced by high levels on other traits. We propose an alternative multidimensional extension…

Jean Philippe Décieux; Andreas Heinz – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2024
In times of decreasing response rates and survey participation, many 'best-practices' have been developed for increasing survey recruitment. However, most of these have never been adequately and experimentally scrutinized for their efficacy. Therefore, in this research note, we draw on probability-based data of an online panel and experimentally…

Shiyu Zhang; James Wagner – Sociological Methods & Research, 2024
Adaptive survey design refers to using targeted procedures to recruit different sampled cases. This technique strives to reduce bias and variance of survey estimates by trying to recruit a larger and more balanced set of respondents. However, it is not well understood how adaptive design can improve data and survey estimates beyond the…

Irina Bauer; Tanja Kunz; Tobias Gummer – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2025
In web surveys, no interviewer is present to clarify question comprehension problems, which can be particularly prevalent among respondents with low literacy skills. Although plain language is used in various contexts to improve text comprehensibility, its use in social science questionnaires has not been investigated to date. Using a…

O'Brien; Rebecca S. Lufler – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
Growth in the online survey market may be increasing response burden and possibly jeopardizing higher response rates. This meta-analysis evaluated survey trends over one decade (2011-2020) to determine: (1) changes in survey publication rates over time, (2) changes in response rates over time, (3) typical response rates within health sciences…

Keanen M. McKinley – Research in Comparative and International Education, 2024
In this qualitative study, I worked with international students to understand how researchers can increase response rates to international student experience surveys. I explicitly framed international students as a potentially vulnerable and hard-to-reach population, and then considered barriers associated with vulnerable populations and research…

Jonas Elis; Achim Goerres; Sabrina J. Mayer; Dennis C. Spies – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2024
For hard-to-survey populations such as ethnic minorities and immigrants, increasing survey response rates is a crucial element of the fieldwork as these populations often show a higher likelihood of not participating compared with the native population. However, no study has so far compared different strategies for mobilisation within this group.…

Daniel Sullivan; Richard Lakeman; Debbie Massey; Dima Nasrawi; Marion Tower; Megan Lee – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2024
Several times each year the teaching performance of academics at higher education institutions are evaluated through anonymous, online student evaluation of teaching (SET) surveys. Universities use SETs to inform decisions about staff promotion and tenure, but low student participation levels make the surveys impractical for this use. This scoping…

Orsola Torrisi; Jethro Banda; Georges Reniers; Stéphane Helleringer – Field Methods, 2024
Guidelines for conducting surveys by mobile phone calls in low- and middle-income countries suggest keeping interviews short (<20 minutes). The evidence supporting this recommendation is scant, even though limiting interview duration might reduce the amount of data generated by such surveys. We recruited nearly 2,500 mobile phone users in…

Ashani Jayasekera; Laura Stapleton – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Background: A growing number of surveys are conducted online where respondents can choose to complete the questionnaire (Lehdonvirta et al., 2020). As respondents are self-selected, there is potential that the respondents will not be an accurate representation of the population. For example, white people are disproportionately more likely to…

Probes are follow-ups to survey questions used to gain insights on respondents' understanding of and responses to these questions. They are usually administered as open-ended questions, primarily in the context of questionnaire pretesting. Due to the decreased cost of data collection for open-ended questions in web surveys, researchers have argued…

Kseniia Marcq; Johan Braeken – Educational Assessment, Evaluation and Accountability, 2024
Gender differences in item nonresponse are well-documented in high-stakes achievement tests, where female students are shown to omit more items than male students. These gender differences in item nonresponse are often linked to differential risk-taking strategies, with females being risk-averse and unwilling to guess on an item, even if it could…
