This book provides insights from "Computer Assisted Self-Administered Interview" (CASI) surveys conducted in Japan, and demonstrates how such technology-aided methods can expand the horizon of public opinion research. As the computer-assisted survey is bound to be more dominant in the coming years, this book will form an important foundation for future academic studies as well as their practical applications in the field.
