• catalog abstract "In early 1982, the National Election Studies obtained additional support from the National Science Foundation for a systematic study comparing survey data collected through traditional methods (household sampling and personal interviewing) with data collected by random digit dial (RDD) telephone sampling using computer-assisted telephone interviewing (CATI). The study took place in conjunction with the previously funded 1982 National Election Study of congressional elections. The broad purposes of the data collection were to permit the NES staff and user community to assess overall differences between the two data collection techniques in sample and measurement quality, and to carry out a series of additional methodological experiments concerned with question format, computer-assisted procedures, and survey organization. The resulting study consists of 998 complete or partial telephone interviews, all of which were conducted in the three months following the 1982 elections. Because of parallel work in the development of computer-assisted telephone interviewing at Berkeley and Michigan, the telephone sample was randomly allocated to two different interviewing sites, one operated by the University of Michigan's Survey Research Center, and one by University of California-Berkeley's Program in Computer-Assisted Survey Methods. The focus of the survey, for both methods, was the congressional elections which had just been held. Respondents were asked about their involvement and interest in the campaign, whether and how they voted, the nature and extent of contact with their United States Representative, and about their knowledge of issue positions held by candidates for Congress. A number of questions dealt with President Reagan's performance in office. In addition, the respondents were asked to evaluate Reagan's personal qualities and their own feelings toward him. Other variables include feeling thermometers, party identification, major national problems, attitudes on a number of political and social issues, and personal data. In this release of the dataset, the data from the Methods Comparison Project have been merged with the Early Release data from the 1982 National Election study, for a combined N of 2,416. This has been done to facilitate the work of those who wish to make comparisons of telephone and personal interview methods. The inclusion of personal interview data in the present data set is not intended for substantive analytic use. An extensive introduction to the documentation provides essential information and cautionary notes for potential analysts.".
