参与一波纵向调查是否会影响受访者在后续调查中对其社会和经济福祉的报告？如果参与调查确实改变了受访者随后对有关其社会和经济福祉问题的回答，那么这就令人质疑从任何广泛使用的数据来源获得的信息的有效性。在本文中，我们估计了方法学家所谓的面板条件或“时间调查”效应的大小。以前的努力来估计面板条件效应的大小，利用方法学薄弱的设计，并集中在有限范围的措施的后果。我们使用更强的研究设计，并使用大规模的调查数据，对个人的社会和经济福祉的广泛措施，以测试一系列理论推导的假设下，面板条件作用的情况下，应该是最严重的。初步结果基本支持这些假设。
Does participating in one wave of a longitudinal survey affect respondents’ reports of their social and economic well-being in follow-up survey waves? If survey participation does alter respondents’ subsequent answers to questions about their social and economic well-being, then this calls into question the validity of information derived from any number of widely used data resources. In this paper, we estimate the magnitude of what methodologists have called panel conditioning or “time-insurvey” effects. Previous efforts to estimate the magnitude of panel conditioning effects have utilized methodologically weak designs and have focused on consequences for a limited range of measures. We use a stronger research design and use large-scale survey data on a wide range of measures of individuals’ social and economic well-being to test a series of theoretically derived hypotheses about the circumstances under which panel conditioning effects should be most severe. Preliminary results generally support these hypotheses.
