Feasibility of Conducting Followup Surveys in the National Household Education Survey

摘要

The followup survey began in late April 1992 and ended a month later, about 1 year after the initial NHES:91 data collection period. The survey procedures for a typical RDD survey were not appropriate for the followup survey because specific respondents to the NHES:91 were sought. Because those respondents could have changed telephone numbers and addresses during the year, procedures were developed to attempt to locate and then interview the NHES:91 respondents for the followup survey. In the followup interview, each respondent was asked to answer a limited subset of items about the sampled child.
