目的本研究的目的是基于基于地址的样本来评估电话健康调查数据中的无应答误差。数据来源：大波士顿地区的电话采访和面谈。研究设计/数据收集采访者尝试使用从联邦健康调查中提取的问题，在与电话号码匹配的地址进行电话采访。面对面的家庭访谈是在没有电话号码的地址上进行的，没有电话答复者。主要研究结果在对人口统计学差异进行调整后，在基于电话采访的15项估计中，只有8项在包括所有三组数据的情况下，估计值的标准误差在两个标准误差以内。结论对于基于地址的样本的健康调查，许多基于电话受访者的估计与总人口的不同之处在于，无法通过简单的人口统计调整进行纠正。
Objective The objective of this study was to assess nonresponse error in telephone health survey data based on an address-based sample. Data Sources Telephone and in-person interviews in Greater Boston. Study Design/Data Collection Interviewers attempted telephone interviews at addresses that were matched to telephone numbers using questions drawn from federal health surveys. In-person household interviews were carried out with telephone nonrespondents and at addresses without matching telephone numbers. Principal Findings After adjusting for demographic differences, only eight of 15 estimates based on the telephone interviews lay within two standard errors of the estimates when data from all three groups were included. Conclusions For health surveys of address-based samples, many estimates based on telephone respondents differ from the total population in ways that cannot be corrected with simple demographic adjustments.
