Abstract

"The employee survey of the Linked Personnel Panel (LPP) was conducted via telephone during the first three waves. In wave four the data was either collected via telephone or alternatively via web. The survey mode can influence the survey results. Mixed mode results often reveal this mode effect. Mode effects represent a varying response distribution over survey modes. The major causes for mode effects are selection effects and measurement effects. Selection effects are a combination of coverage and nonresponse. The survey outcomes of the fourth wave demonstrate two note-worthy results, which should be considered when working with the LPP. First, the distribution of several panel variables differs between wave four and earlier waves. Second, there are mode effects in the fourth wave of the employee survey. In the first part, this report describes the causes for mode effects and refers to studies that are more detailed. The second part highlights differences in response and sample distribution between a) wave four and prior waves and b) web and telephone interviews in the fourth wave."
