Session: Advances in Paradata
Time: Thursday 7th July, 11:15 - 12:45
Convenors:
Dr Daniel Kilburn (UCL)
Mr Paul Stoneman (University of Surrey)
Abstract Details
This session will explore the possibilities of new advances in research with paradata, bringing together quantitative and qualitative methodologies, and drawing on contemporary and historical data. The first presentation examines the scope for linking geocoded auxiliary variables to survey paradata, as a means of researching nonresponse in the European Social Survey. The second presentation draws on qualitative paradata from youth employment studies of the 1960s and 1980s. The final presentation explores changes and continuities in survey interviewing, comparing 'paper and pencil' paradata from the 1968/69 Poverty in the UK survey with data from contemporary surveys (both CAPI and 'analogue').
