Abstract The study compares the results of two surveys based on the module ‘Family and Changing Gender Roles’ of the International Social Survey Programme (ISSP). The first survey was administered as a paper-and-pencil questionnaire to a representative sample of the German population. The second one was administered as a WebTV survey to a pre-recruited panel of the full population in Germany. Panel members were recruited with the aid of an RDD CATI procedure. Comparisons of the demographic variables (age, sex, education) yield only small differences. With regard to the substantive variables (family and gender roles), no relevant mode effects for half of all items were observed both for measures of the central tendency as well as for distributional characteristics. For the other half of all items, it can be demonstrated that the respondents in the WebTV survey chose more extreme categories. Due to space limitations on the screen, most of the these were presented screen-by-screen in WebTV mode, and as a matrix in the paper-and-pencil version, indicating a slight visual design effect.
