Alternative indicators for the risk of non-response bias: a simulation study. [PDF]
Int Stat Rev, 2016 SummaryThe growth of non‐response rates for social science surveys has led to increased concern about the risk of non‐response bias. Unfortunately, the non‐response rate is a poor indicator of when non‐response bias is likely to occur. We consider in this paper a set of alternative indicators.
