Abstract:

In 1987, the 1st International Conference on Telephone Survey Methodology was held in Charlotte, North Carolina. The conference generated a widely read book on telephone survey methodology (Groves et al, 1989). Although that book continues to be a standard reference for many professionals, the rapid changes in telecommunications and in telephone survey methodology throughout the past 15 years make the volume increasingly dated. The goal of this second conference will be to bring together survey researchers and practitioners concerned with telephone survey methodology and practice in order to stimulate research papers that contribute to the science of measuring and/or reducing errors attributable to poor telephone survey design, provide documentation of current practices, and stimulate new ideas for further research and development. The conference will be held in Florida, January 11--15, 2006. This roundtable will discuss all aspects of the conference, including the Wiley monograph that will be produced.
