Der Arbeitsbericht diskutiert Auswirkungen unterschiedlicher Datenerhebungsmethoden auf die Antwortausprägungen der Befragten. Im Mittelpunkt der Erörterungen stehen die direkte Kommunikation in face-to-face-Situationen, Telefoninterviews und schriftliche Befragungen. Die jeweiligen Effekte werden durchgängig daraufhin reflektiert, inwieweit sie kognitiven und/ oder kommunikativen Prozessen zuzuordnen sind. Hingewiesen wird in diesem Zusammenhang auch darauf, daß ein komplexes Geflecht von Bedingungsfaktoren anzutreffen ist, weil nicht nur die Form der Präsentation von Fragen die Antwortausprägungen bestimmt, sondern gleichzeitig die Organisation der Befragung selbst die Anordnung und Formulierung der Untersuchungsfragen ein Stück weit determiniert, so daß unterschiedliche Antwortausprägungen durch die Anlage der Untersuchung selbst bestimmt sein können.

'The major differences between face-to-face and telephone interviews as well as self-administered questionnaires are reviewed and are related to the cognitive and communicative processes assumed to underlie the process of question answering. Based on these considerations, the impact of administration mode on the emergence of well-known response effects in survey measurement is discussed, and relevant experimental evidence is reported. It is concluded that administration mode affects the emergence of question order and context effects; the emergence of response order effects; the validity of retrospective reports; and the degree of socially desirable responding. The emergence of question wording and question form effects, on the other hand, appears to be relatively independent of administration mode.' (author's abstract)... view less
