It is highly recommended to all who are interested or involved in telephone surveys." - Journal of Official Statistics Telephone Survey Methodology presents developments in telephone survey techniques from around the world. An international group of survey experts provides a comprehensive review of the state of the art. They describe work in commercial settings, academic research, and governmental statistical agencies- including results from the United States, several European countries, and Australia. There are reports on trends in coverage of U.S. household populations; on effects due to mode of data collection; and on the state of the art in technology. Important aspects of each method are covered: choice of target population, sample design, questionnaire construction,,interviewing techniques, measurement error issues, and nonresponse characteristics.
