Abstract:

Description: Some previous evidence have already showed that people of different ages may response differently to a weather survey in unreasonable local temperature conditions. For the data from 8 CBS News surveys from 2001 to 2007, I will use logistic regression analysis to show that the temperature change can affect the response results, and then use post-stratification domain analysis to adjust the sampling nonresponse bias.
