Abstract At AAPOR 2001, we presented evidence from a national
survey experiment showing that data collected over the Internet by
Knowledge Networks and Harris Interactive manifested higher concurrent
and predictive validity than data collected over the telephone by The
Ohio State University Center for Survey Research. In order to ascertain
whether the differences are due to response processes inherent in the
modes per se, or to differences between the characteristics of the
Internet and telephone samples, an experiment was conducted in a
controlled lab setting. Participants were randomly assigned to answer
survey questions privately on a computer or orally over an intercom
system. Replicating findings from the national surveys, data from the
lab experiment suggested that there was higher concurrent validity and
less socially desirable responding in the computer mode than the
intercom mode. The mode difference in concurrent validity was sometimes
more pronounced among participants with more limited cognitive skills,
less experience completing surveys, less political knowledge, and those
who had not received instructions to think carefully.
