Using Paradata to Identify Potential Issues and Trends in the American Community Survey Internet Instrument
This report provides results of the paradata analysis from the November 2011 American Community Survey (ACS) Internet Test. This analysis focuses on screens and behaviors that were identified as problematic in the April 2011 ACS Internet Test to determine whether these issues still exist. Additionally, we examine whether the respondent interaction with the instrument is similar to what we expect using the paradata analysis from the 2011 April Internet Test as a reference.
