Advances in Longitudinal Survey Methodology

Advances in Longitudinal Survey Methodology
 
Explore an up-to-date overview of best practices in the implementation of longitudinal surveys from leading experts in the field of survey methodology
 
Advances in Longitudinal Survey Methodology delivers a thorough review of the most current knowledge in the implementation of longitudinal surveys. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the many advances that have been made in the field of longitudinal survey methodology over the past fifteen years, as well as extending the topic coverage of the earlier volume, "Methodology of Longitudinal Surveys", published in 2009. This new edited volume covers subjects like dependent interviewing, interviewer effects, panel conditioning, rotation group bias, measurement of cognition, and weighting.
 
New chapters discussing the recent shift to mixed-mode data collection and obtaining respondents' consent to data linkage add to the book's relevance to students and social scientists seeking to understand modern challenges facing data collectors today. Readers will also benefit from the inclusion of:
* A thorough introduction to refreshment sampling for longitudinal surveys, including consideration of principles, sampling frame, sample design, questionnaire design, and frequency
* An exploration of the collection of biomarker data in longitudinal surveys, including detailed measurements of ill health, biological pathways, and genetics in longitudinal studies
* An examination of innovations in participant engagement and tracking in longitudinal surveys, including current practices and new evidence on internet and social media for participant engagement.
 
An invaluable source for post-graduate students, professors, and researchers in the field of survey methodology, Advances in Longitudinal Survey Methodology will also earn a place in the libraries of anyone who regularly works with or conducts longitudinal surveys and requires a one-stop reference for the latest developments and findings in the field.
