• Abstract:
  The Subcommittee on Computer Assisted Survey Information Collection investigated the use of computers in collecting survey information. This report covers the different ways in which small computers can be used to improve data collection. For example, the report describes computer assisted telephone interviewing (CATI), computer assisted personal interviewing (CAPI), data collection using touchtone telephones, and voice recognition. More than most working papers the relevance of the information in this report will age very quickly. Various methodological issues are also addressed in this report. For example, issues discussed include human-machine interfaces, software development, hardware planning, and computer security.
