Please join for the PDHP workshop “Response Quality Assessment in Surveys presented by Henning Silber from the University of Michigan’s Survey Research Center and Fabienne Kraemer from the Department of Survey Design and Methodology at GESIS – Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences in Mannheim, Germany. This workshop is geared toward researchers and data analysts of all experience levels and will introduce key concepts for understanding measurement error in surveys. We will explore several indicators for assessing response quality, including attention checks and response variability, and discuss their application with example data. Attendees will also be shown practical examples from the KODAQS Data Quality Toolbox, using the R package “resquin” for multi-item scales.
The event will be Dec. 13, from 9 to 1.
Topics covered:
- Introduction to measurement error in surveys
