不遵守捕捞条例对相关管理制度的成功具有关键影响。然而，估计不遵守的程度是一项挑战，部分原因是问题的敏感性，直接询问可能导致估计数偏低。本研究测试了两种间接方法的有效性，随机反应技术（RRT）和项目计数技术（ICT），在提供更高和更准确的估计休闲捕鱼不遵守比传统的直接询问（DQ）在马尔伯勒声音蓝鳕鱼渔业，新西兰。虽然RRT提供了一个更高的不遵守估计比ICT和DQ的三个法规之一（规模限制），ICT未能提供一个更高的估计比DQ的三个法规。我们认为，调查的在线模式，行为频率和问题敏感度（虽然没有测量）对我们的调查结果有很大的影响。所使用的RRT版本为答卷人提供了更多的隐私保护，也可能有助于其在信通技术方面的表现。这项研究是第一个使用相同的样本人群的所有方法，消除潜在的混淆社会人口因素，并提供更多的信心，归因于所使用的方法的差异。
Non-compliance with fishing regulations has a critical influence on the success of the associated management regime. Yet, estimating the extent of non-compliance is challenging in part because of the sensitive nature of the subject and direct questioning is likely to result in low estimates. This study tested the effectiveness of two indirect methods, randomized response technique (RRT) and item count technique (ICT), in providing higher and more accurate estimates of recreational fishing non-compliance than traditional direct questioning (DQ) in the Marlborough Sounds blue cod fishery, New Zealand. Although RRT provided a higher non-compliance estimate than ICT and DQ for one of the three regulations (size limit), ICT failed to provide a higher estimate than DQ for any of the three regulations. We suggest that the online mode of the survey, behaviour frequency and question sensitivity (although not measured) had a strong influence on our findings. The version of RRT used, offering increased privacy protection for respondents, is also likely to have contributed to its performance against ICT. This study is the first to use the same sample population for all methods, eliminating potentially confounding socio-demographic factors and providing more confidence in attributing differences to the method used.
