Abstract The purpose of this paper is to report on item non-response differences in a customer satisfaction study using a mixed mode design with choice of completion method. In the spring of 2001, customers of a Federal Government agency were mailed a paper survey but also given a web site address and instructions for completing the survey over the Internet. Of the 2,231 respondents, 23% (n=515) chose to use the Internet to respond. A preliminary comparison shows a significantly higher proportion of web respondents than paper respondents skipped the close-ended items while a significantly higher proportion of paper respondents skipped the open-ended questions. In addition to examining the relationship between mode and item non-response, the data will also be analyzed to determine whether mode is an important predictor of non-response when taking control variables into consideration. The results will show whether mode or other factors such as respondent demographics, department with which the customer does business, and/or customer attitudes and experiences best predict item non-response for both close and open-ended questions.
