Long online-only questionnaire and respondents’ perceived survey burden
As surveys increasingly adopt mixed-mode designs, with self-completion modes playing a key role, questions arise about maintaining data quality, particularly regarding survey length. This study examines whether the relationship between perceived survey burden and length aligns with the ‘longer-is-worse’ hypothesis. Using data from the UK Generations and Gender Survey, featuring a long and complex online-only questionnaire, we assess respondents’ …
Survey breakoffs during conflict
Do respondents using smartphones produce lower quality data? Evidence from the first large-scale UK mixed-device survey – Understanding Society Wave 8
Some social surveys in the UK have either transitioned to online data collection or are in the process of transitioning. The Covid-19 pandemic forced rapid moves to online data collection for some surveys. There are still some concerns regarding the quality of data produced by respondents using smartphones for survey questionnaire completion. This paper uses the first available in the UK, large scale mixed-device survey, Understanding Society Wav…
Investigating call record data using sequence analysis to inform adaptive survey designs
Researchers have become increasingly interested in better understanding the survey data collection process in interviewer-administered surveys. However, tools for analysing paradata capturing information about field processes, also called call record data, are still not yet fully explored. This paper introduces sequence analysis as a simple tool for investigating such data with the aim of better understanding and improving survey processes. A nov…
A comparison of simple score and latent class approaches
Knowledge about different health-related attitudes, beliefs, and risks is of significant interest to scholars in different Social Science disciplines. Usually knowledge is collected in a form of multiple variables and then constructed as a composite indicator. The question any researcher working with knowledge-related variables faces is: what is the best way to measure and summarise different dimensions of health-related knowledge? The main goal …
The determinants of transitions into sheltered accommodation in later life in England and Wales
BACKGROUND: Population ageing is a global challenge and understanding the dynamics of living arrangements in later life and their implications for the design of appropriate housing and long-term care is a critical policy issue. Existing research has focused on the study of transitions into residential care in the UK. This paper investigates transitions into sheltered accommodation among older people in England and Wales between 1993 and 2008. MET…
A health promotion logic model to review progress in HIV prevention in China
Using the theory and concepts of health promotion, this paper proposes a logic model for HIV/AIDS prevention and control which provides a structure for describing planned actions and predicted impacts/outcomes from comprehensive HIV prevention interventions. The potential usefulness of the model is examined by reviewing the evolution of HIV prevention and management in China, drawing on evidence from interventions reported from a mixture of study…
Hiv Awareness in China Among Women of Reproductive Age (1997–2005)
HIV prevalence in China is less than one per cent, but the absolute number of people living with HIV/AIDS is large and growing. Given the limited scope of any potential cure for HIV, prevention plays a crucial role in controlling the epidemic. This paper examines the evolution of HIV awareness among women in China between 1997 and 2005. A regression decomposition analysis technique was used to disentangle the two main components driving a change …
Disentangling the Complex Association Between Female Genital Cutting and Hiv Among Kenyan Women
Female genital cutting (FGC) is a widespread cultural practice in Africa and the Middle East, with a number of potential adverse health consequences for women. It was hypothesized by Kun (1997) that FGC increases the risk of HIV transmission through a number of different mechanisms. Using the 2003 data from the Kenyan Demographic and Health Survey (KDHS), this study investigates the potential association between FGC and HIV. The 2003 KDHS provide…
