调查研究人员希望受访者提供高质量的数据，但有证据表明，社会期望偏差可能是司空见惯的。社会期望会导致对敏感行为的严重漏报或多报。随着对受访者用于准备和提供回答的认知过程的更好理解，调查设计者可能希望最大限度地减少社会期望偏差，或者至少检测出减少其影响的设置。本研究的主要目的是利用调查问卷来了解某些类型的调查问题的心理反应。更具体地说，我们试图确定情绪触发如何改变对人工流产的认知要求和敏感调查问题的反应延迟，这是报道不足的。我们假设，在经历过这种敏感的生殖结果的受访者中，有过堕胎经历的人可能会延长对间接堕胎问题的反应时间，因为他们在决定是否以及如何回答这个问题时犹豫不决。数据来自对印度拉贾斯坦邦6,035名育龄妇女的代表性调查。我们使用列表实验问题主动屏幕时间paralleling结合直接问题对堕胎的反应来评估我们的假设。我们的最终模型是一个多变量线性回归，在采访者的水平上具有随机效应，包括对受访者，社区和采访者特征的调整，以估计受访者内的影响。结果表明，在直接堕胎问题上报告堕胎的妇女比在直接堕胎问题上没有报告堕胎的妇女多花了5.11（95% CI 0.21，10.00）秒来回答列表实验治疗列表。这项研究表明，获得额外的见解时，专注于响应延迟认知要求的问题，涉及敏感行为的测量。
Survey researchers hope that respondents will provide high-quality data, but evidence suggests that social desirability bias may be commonplace. Social desirability can lead to significant underreporting or overreporting of sensitive behaviors. With better understanding of the cognitive processes that respondents use to prepare and deliver their responses, survey designers could hope to minimize social desirability bias or at least detect settings that lessen its impact. The primary objective of this study was to use survey paradata to understand the psychology of responding to certain types of survey questions. More specifically, we sought to determine how emotional triggering can alter response latencies to cognitively demanding and sensitive survey questions on induced abortion, which is underreported. We hypothesize that having had a prior abortion might lengthen response times to an indirect question about abortion among respondents who have experienced this sensitive reproductive outcome as they hesitate in deciding whether and how to respond to the question. Data come from a representative survey of 6,035 reproductive age women in Rajasthan, India. We used list experiment question active screen time paradata in conjunction with responses from direct questions on abortion to assess our hypothesis. Our final model was a multivariate linear regression with random effects at the level of the interviewer, including adjustments for respondent, community, and interviewer characteristics to estimate within-respondent effects. Results suggest that women who reported an abortion on the direct abortion questions took 5.11 (95% CI 0.21, 10.00) seconds longer to respond to the list experiment treatment list compared to the control list in comparison to women who did not report an abortion on the direct abortion questions. This study demonstrates the additional insights gained when focusing on response latencies to cognitively demanding questions involved in the measurement of sensitive behaviors.
