项目摘要

Many surveys include sensitive questions , i.e. questions that pertain to private or illegal behavior or socially frowned-upon attitudes. Respondents misreport on sensitive topics in order to avoid painful feelings of embarrassment in the interview situation or repercussions from third parties beyond the interview setting. As a consequence, survey estimates are often erroneous and distorted by bias. The goal of the project is to develop, compare and evaluate different techniques and strategies of asking sensitive questions in three different survey modes: face-to-face, telephone and online-surveys. Altogether, the aim of the project is to establish a research program on sensitive questions in Germany.During the ongoing first two years of the project (2008–2009), we compared different variants of the randomized response technique (RRT) with other question techniques regarding reduction of non-response and response bias. One challenge is to develop appropriate RRTformats for each survey mode. Because these tasks are being carried out as outlined in the research proposal for the first funding period, during the next two years we intend to continue our research along four main lines: (1) Theoretical aspects of the interviewer-respondent interaction and statistical considerations regarding the trade-off between anonymity and statistical power will be worked out to further refine and test different question techniques. This also includes the development of software for the analysis of interviewer (context) effects in RRT-data. (2) The validation study in Mainz will be continued and extended. By comparing data from face-to-face interviews with administrative court records, this study enables an external validation of the measurement instruments. (3) Mode effects will be investigated by means of a sensitive-questions survey using the access panel developed by the research group lead by Uwe Engel (in Bremen; also part of the DFG priority programme 1292). (4) An experimental survey will investigate the viability of the Item Count Technique (ICT) in the telephone survey mode.

许多调查包括敏感问题，即与私人或非法行为或社会不受欢迎的态度有关的问题。受访者在敏感话题上的错误报告是为了避免在面试中尴尬的痛苦感觉或面试环境之外的第三方的影响。因此，调查估计往往是错误的，并受到偏见的扭曲。该项目的目标是开发、比较和评估在三种不同的调查模式中提出敏感问题的不同技术和策略：面对面调查、电话调查和在线调查。总而言之，该项目的目的是在德国建立一个敏感问题的研究计划。在项目进行的前两年（2008-2009年），我们比较了随机反应技术（RRT）的不同变体与其他问题技术在减少无反应和反应偏差方面的差异。一个挑战是为每个调查模式开发适当的rrt格式。因为这些任务是按照第一个资助期的研究计划中概述的那样进行的，在接下来的两年里，我们打算沿着四条主线继续我们的研究：(1)访谈者-被调查者互动的理论方面和关于匿名性和统计力量之间权衡的统计考虑将被制定出来，以进一步完善和测试不同的问题技术。这还包括开发软件，用于分析rrt数据中采访者（上下文）的影响。(2)美因茨的验证研究将继续和扩展。通过比较面对面访谈与行政法院记录的数据，本研究可以对测量工具进行外部验证。(3)模式效应将通过使用Uwe Engel领导的研究小组（在不来梅，也是DFG优先方案1292的一部分）开发的访问面板进行敏感问题调查来调查。(4)实验调查将调查项目计数技术（ICT）在电话调查模式下的可行性。
