  • Personalization of Mail Surveys for General Public and Populations with a Group Identity

    Open AccessDon A Dillman, Virginia Lesser et al.ARTICLERural Sociology2007Cited by: 9References: 34

    The effect of personalization on mail survey response rates was examined in nine studies that included 17 comparisons under several research conditions. A study of this variable across multiple experiments in five agricultural experiment stations was undertaken because of conflicting results from previous research and from concern that the effectiveness of personalization might have decreased over time. Results show that, while response to genera…

    This study describes university students' perceptions of the seriousness of family violence in Jordan, including crimes of honor and, within constraints, identifies demographic and attitudinal factors associated with these perceptions. Data were extracted from a comprehensive survey of a stratified random sample of students attending two major universities in Jordan during the spring of 1995.

  • Effects of Category Order on Answers in Mail and Telephone Surveys1

    Open AccessDon A Dillman, Tommy L Brown et al.ARTICLERural Sociology1995Cited by: 12References: 7

    Past research suggests that mail surveys encourage a primacy effect, which is a tendency to choose the first answers from a list, whereas telephone surveys encourage a recency effect, a tendency to choose the last answers from a list. This paper summarizes results from 82 new experiments conducted in 12 separate surveys in seven states. Only four of 33 mail survey comparisons exhibited significant primacy effects, while five of 26 experiments in …

  • Assimilation and Contrast Effects in General/Specific Questions1

    Open AccessJohn E Carlson, Robert Mason et al.ARTICLERural Sociology1995Cited by: 1References: 10

    Data from five surveys that included specific and general questions on a similar topic are examined. Results suggest that when specific and general questions are paired in surveys, significant patterns will appear. In each of the five studies, correlations between pairs of questions were significantly different when the general followed the specific item compared with the general/specific order. But there was no consistent pattern of assimilation…

  • Contrast Effects and Subtraction in Part-Whole Questions

    Roger D Mason, Robert Mason et al.ARTICLEPublic Opinion Quarterly1994Cited by: 10References: 4

    Responses to a question about the state economy changed when the question followed a similar item about the economy of the respondent's local community. The overall distribution of the answers changed, as well as the correlation between the two items. Prior work has suggested that respondents may exclude specific aspects of a general issue from consideration when a question about the general issue follows a question about the specific aspect of i…

  • Exchange as Concept, Conceptual Framework or Theory? The Case of Goode's Application of Exchange to the Family

    Roger W Libby, John E CarlsonARTICLEJournal of Comparative Family…1973

    The purpose of this article is to discuss William Goode's utilization of exchange concepts in family sociology. Assumptions, concepts and propositions of exchange theory are discussed in light of Goode's family-related articles. Our analysis argues that Goode only makes partial use of exchange theory in his writings on the family. Goode commonly utilizes exchange concepts which are based in economic theory, but he does not spell out the hedonisti…
