To the uninformed, surveys appear to be an easy type of research to design and conduct, but when students and professionals delve deeper, they encounter the vast complexities that the range and practice of survey methods present. To complicate matters, technology has rapidly affected the way surveys can be conducted; today, surveys are conducted via cell phone, the Internet, email, interactive voice response, and other technology-based modes. Thus, students, researchers, and professionals need both a comprehensive understanding of these complexities and a revised set of tools to meet the challenges. In conjunction with top survey researchers around the world and with Nielsen Media Research serving as the corporate sponsor, the Encyclopedia of Survey Research Methods presents state-of-the-art information and methodological examples from the field of survey research. Although there are other "how-to" guides and references texts on survey research, none is as comprehensive as this Encyclopedia, and none presents the material in such a focused and approachable manner. With more than 600 entries, this resource uses a Total Survey Error perspective that considers all aspects of possible survey error from a cost-benefit standpoint. Key Features Covers all major facets of survey research methodology, from selecting the sample design and the sampling frame, designing and pretesting the questionnaire, data collection, and data coding, to the thorny issues surrounding diminishing response rates, confidentiality, privacy, informed consent and other ethical issues, data weighting, and data analyses Presents a Reader′s Guide to organize entries around themes or specific topics and easily guide users to areas of interest Offers cross-referenced terms, a brief listing of Further Readings, and stable Web site URLs following most entries The Encyclopedia of Survey Research Methods is specifically written to appeal to beginning, intermediate, and advanced students, practitioners, researchers, consultants, and consumers of survey-based information.

A comprehensive review of the design, problems of implementation, and analytic uses of panel surveys. A multidisciplinary group of contributors presents a comparative evaluation of longitudinal studies, offering both general reviews and detailed discussion of methodological issues. Modes of data collection, statistical design and estimation, database management, sources of nonsampling error, panel conditioning, nonresponse adjustments, estimation of cross-sectional and change parameters, and modeling are covered.

The Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID) is a longitudinal panel survey of individuals. The purpose of the survey is to measure changes in the economic well-being of individuals and the factors that influence these changes. SLID's sample is divided into two overlapping panels, each six years in length. Longitudinal surveys like SLID are complex due to the dynamic nature of the sample, which in turn is due to the ever-changing composition of households and families over the years. For each reference year, SLID produces two sets of weights: one is representative of the initial population (the longitudinal weights) while the other is representative of the current population (the cross-sectional weights). This document uses results for the 1997 reference year to describe SLID's methodology for the longitudinal and cross-sectional weights, and presents problems that have been encountered and solutions that have been proposed.

Survey Weights: A Step-by-Step Guide to Calculation is the first guide geared toward Stata users that systematically covers the major steps taken in creating survey weights. These weights are used to project a sample to some larger population and can be computed for either probability or nonprobability samples. Sample designs can range from simple, single-stage samples to more complex, multistage samples, each of which may use specialized steps in weighting to account for selection probabilities, nonresponse, inaccurate coverage of a population by a sample, and auxiliary data to improve precision and compensate for coverage errors. The authors provide many examples with Stata code.

The Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID), introduced in the 1993 reference year, is a longitudinal panel survey of individuals. Its goal is to measure changes in the economic well-being of individuals and the factors that influence those changes, especially key factors in the areas of demographic and family characteristics and labour market activity. Weighting a longitudinal survey can sometimes be a major methodological challenge, not only because of its longitudinal and cross-sectional dimensions, but also because of the dynamic nature of the panel (which is in turn due to the ever-changing composition of families and households). The main purpose of this report is to describe the various steps in the longitudinal and cross-sectional weighting process for the 2003 reference year. A second objective is to inform the reader of future developments and forthcoming changes affecting weighting. The report consists of five sections. The survey's methodology is discussed in section 3. Section 4 presents the steps in the longitudinal weighting process, from determination of the initial weights to calculation of the final ones, while section 5 covers the various steps in the cross-sectional weighting process. It should be noted that the longitudinal and cross-sectional aspects are combined in the description of some of the weighting steps. Section 6 looks to the future, and section 7 contains the report's conclusion. This report is an update of Lévesque and Franklin's 2000 report on SLID's weighting.--Document.
