Abstract

Ten cognitive interviews were conducted to evaluate the proposed addition of questions on base and overtime hours to the Agricultural Labor Survey and an instruction to exclude H-2A workers. Results of the cognitive interviewing showed that the addition of questions on base and overtime hours does not place additional burden on respondents. Excluding H-2A workers from the questionnaire made it easier for respondents to report their workers. However, respondents who hired H-2A workers questioned the reason for this exclusion. Although the proposed changes worked well, a number of problems with other questions on the survey were found during this testing. Specifically, respondents had difficulty categorizing their workers and reporting wage information as instructed.
