The Total Survey Error Paradigm: Design, Implementation and Evaluation |
|
| Chair | Ms Amanda Wilmot (Applied Research Centre/University College Dublin/RTI International) |
The total survey error paradigm provides a theoretical framework for optimising surveys by maximising data quality within budgetary constraints. Total Survey Error (TSE) refers to the accumulation of all errors that may arise in the design, collection, processing, and analysis of survey data.
A panel of experts in survey methodology will discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the TSE paradigm in response to a series of posed questions, drawing on their own experiences and using examples from different survey research organisations.
Panel:
Dr Paul Biemer, Center of Excellence for Complex Data Analysis, RTI International
Dr Fannie Cobben, Research Methodology Group, University of Wageningen
Professor Mick Couper, Survey Research Center and Joint Program in Survey Methodology, University of Michigan Institute for Social Research
Professor Peter Lynn, Institute for Social and Economic Research, University of Essex
Dr Ineke Stoop, European Social Survey/The Netherlands Institute for Social Research/SCP
