Abstract

A significant limitation of most data quality comparisons between Web and mail survey responses is that the individuals who choose to respond to one survey mode have different characteristics than those who select the alternative mode. As suggested by other papers in this issue of Survey Practice, such differences in, for example, Internet access, education, and income, may contribute to mode differences in item nonresponse. This makes it difficult to isolate how mode itself affects this aspect of survey quality.
