Abstract:
|
A rapidly changing survey environment today requires a nimble, flexible design that leverages multiple data sources in a multi-mode data collection, produces quality data and optimizes cost allocation over the survey life cycle. Adaptive survey design has been responsive to these changes to minimize survey cost and optimize data quality. We have organized an invited panel to discuss the latest advancements and challenges remaining in adaptive and responsive survey design by assembling editors and authors of papers to be published in the Journal of Official Statistics Special Issue on Adaptive Design, as well as researchers collaborating between academia and governmental sectors. The panel is expected to answer the following overarching questions: What theoretical contributions and innovations have been feasible with adaptive design to advance survey methodology? Under what conditions can administrative records or big data be adaptively used to supplement responsive design? What stopping rules of data collection can be used across major phases of the survey life cycle? How could adaptive design guide surveys while controlling for total survey errors?
