Data Is Much More Reliable
|
Data from on-line surveys are much more reliable
than that of phone, postal mail or intercept
surveys. Why? Call it human error and interviewer
bias. Phone surveys are typically conducted by
part-time workers who receive low hourly wages
with minimal training. Through poor and neglectful
communication, data input errors are introduced.
Also the data is key-punched by someone other
than the respondent. The respondent has no way
of knowing if the phone interviewer is hearing their
responses accurately and/or is even key punching
the response accurately. With postal mail,
responses have to keyed-in from sometimes
illegible handwriting, not to mention key-punch
errors made by the key-puncher.
