Abstract:

Recently, a system was developed at the US Census Bureau to upload each day's Computer Assisted Personal Interviewing (CAPI) data from interviewer laptops and analyze the results using regression models. The intent was to track the possible effect of changes in management at the bureau's Regional Offices on survey responses to key variables. We discuss this application of daily modeling in light of lessons learned from a completed project. Furthermore, we discuss a new system being developed to track components of survey error across sample design changes in the 2010 Redesign of demographic surveys.
